This contemporary poetry collection draws from a lineage of wisdom about the meaning of life as it came to be known by an American crone. With a willingness to offer up her path as a stepping stone for others, EK Bayer writes in a range from free verse to precise rhyme, pain to hilarity, two lines to five hundred, but always with the careful brush of an archeologist discovering treasure. * Aging gracefully * Wisdom * Reflection * Life experience * Maturity * Empowerment * Resilience * Serenity * Inner strength * Emotional depth * Sisterhood * Love and loss * Seasons of life * Blooming in later years * Metaphorical gardens * Renewal * Symbolic imagery * Creative freedom * Self-discovery * Finding one's voice * Artful aging * Spiritual journey * Mindful living * Reflection on the divine * Transcendence * Inner peace * Nostalgia * Historical reflections * Timeless wisdom * Free verse * Haiku * Sonnets * Lyric poetry * Narrative poetry * Feminine strength * Womanhood * Celebrating femininity * Empowering women * Feminine perspectives * Healthy aging * Wellness * Mind-body connection * Holistic living * Self-care
