Listen "Send My Roots Rain"
Episode Synopsis
Poetry is a language perfectly suited for grief, resonating with deep experience without needing to be too literal. we hear our own experience captured and are comforted in companionship with this resonance. But can poetry also offer a jumping off place for exploration of our mourning? Out of her belief that it can, and does, Kim Langley has created a book full of poems written by grievers, adding suggestions for how to add to the readings in our own voice. through her careful selection of the poems and her helpful comments throughout her book, Send My Roots Rain, allows us to experience ourselves in our grief differently and helps us to keep moving. Join us to talk about what inspired the book and how writing it helped her in her own grief.
