From Amazon:

‘Timeless in their relevance to people and the world we live and love in. . . . Lily’s realistic, but positive world view shines.’

Time stands still
sometimes I wish it would,
in the moments of joy,
in the laughter,
in the sharing,
in the hugs.
yet it moves on,
endless, unceasing
I try to capture
the memories,
and hold onto them
forever.

My Review:

This is another winning poetry book by Lawson. I love her poetry because it speaks to the heart. Wine was never mine, not as Lily writes it. We are all different, yet we ll want certain things. I loved Goodbye, as oftentimes, we must say Goodbye to another person for one reason or another. A toxic relationship is not a relationship no matter how badly the other party wants you to stay. Then we have Easter, and the poem is true. I laughed to myself when I realized this poem, and the timing of Easter is off by one day thanks to leap year. The Sunday after spring begins is Palm Sunday this year. There are many poems contained in this book, but my favorite is a world without hunger, illness, racial differences, shelterless, and the list never ends. But what a world that would be. In Heaven it shall be.
