Light Through The Willows

The Death Owl

Poems & Reflections

My poems tell stories of love, true but lost in a world trampled, beautiful but torn. There are angelic visits to the weary and sick on this earth. The Death Owl flies over them at night. She holds stories of ramblings of insane thoughts and dreams in her beak. As you turn the page, you find gentle lines of natures grace and strength. There are stories I have tried to search and figure out of the aging mystery of our ancestors. Family are gone but they feel near. As you read you discover a woman’s strength as she conquers each day of her life. The very last poem, titled He Walked is heartbreaking and though I wanted to show a happy ending, his life has not come to that place yet.

I have truly enjoyed writing each poem. Placing myself in each characters situation, I tried to relate by closing my eyes and feeling their reactions and emotions. I hope you are able to do the same and find a special poem that speaks to you.

Many blessings from above,

Jennifer J. New

True poetic art! I love hunkering down and getting lost in her dream inducing poems! This book is sure to speak to anyone who is reading it! The many poems I have read have spoken to me and the true weight of the words holds strong and I find myself trying to dissect each one! A definite recommendation from me! Thank you Jennifer!❤️
