Meditations on Rising traces the journey that so many women now face in navigating divorce later in life after decades of marriage. The poems focus on gathering oneself after collapse-and how attention itself becomes an act of resistance. These poems are thoughtful reckonings on motherhood, shedding the histories we carry and the personal responsibility to hold grief with wonder. The book explores rising as a return: to breath, to voice and to agency. Faith, too, is reimagined-not as certainty, but as practice: patience, forgiveness, silence, and the daily labor of choosing life over bitterness. Meditations on Rising is a courageous witness to what it takes to rise-not by leaving pain behind, but by learning how to live honestly within it.
