There was more to know, I knew in my heart as I wandered and roamed most days in a place I now call the Quiet Zone, a place where nothingness reigns for a while, where emptiness is king, and spirits of unsettled souls are searching for something to own. The feelings of loss are profound in this zone. It’s hard to stay focused sometimes, and it’s hard not to cry.

 

In “More to Know”, I go to my core and share my angst with the reader about finding meaning again in my life as I sever old friendships, disconnect from family, and let go of my job. My thoughts and feelings during this transition are explored via a combination of poetry and poetic prose illustrated with photographs taken by my husband.
