Not Everyone Dies: Poems on Loss and Found

These original poems cover the good, the bad, the sad, and the uncomfortable. There’s tragedy, and there’s humour. And since the value of a life comes from what we have given and been given, I don’t differentiate between humans and animals in this collection.

They come with their own rhyme scheme, and scansion, and interpretations, because, if life can’t find the same template for all of us, how can death?

NOTE: The section called ‘Challenging’ covers topics some readers might find painful or triggering, such as dementia, murder, suicide, and Covid.
