In This Time... poet Colette Volkema DeNooyer creates and preserves the heart and soul of a life, passing on through poems her feelings and wonderings, insights gleaned and memories of those who so deserve to know that they are cherished. The evidence of the poet's care and loving attentiveness is there in the precision of detail and the enormous amounts of time spent honing her artistry, the penultimate sign of sincerity. Save and savor these poems. They are as lovingly real as words can ever make incarnate.
- Jack Ridl, author of Broken Symmetry. Losing Season and Practicing to Walk Like a Heron
This Time... is a basketful of fruits gathered just at the perfect point of ripening. It is hands cupped, offering the reader a cool drink of wisdom, a rest stop on the journey from childhood to old age. This poet knows the agony of regret, and the resurrection that is possible when we forgive ourselves. It is a travelogue for beginning again in the middle of life, offered by one who has lived and loved deeply, one who has mastered her craft all the way to the genius of simplicity. In Life After Forty, DeNooyer writes, Pay attention to eagles as you go. It's not too late/to learn from them - they reach the summit soaring.
