This evocative poetry collection by Dawn spans three distinct realms: Life, Death, and the enigmatic ‘Sticky Stuff’. The first section, Life, weaves together tales of vacations, English heritage, and the blossoming of new love, painting vivid imagery with her words. Death, inspired by Dawn’s extensive experience as a hospice nurse, offers a poignant exploration of life’s final chapter, blending empathy and insight to touch the soul deeply. ‘Sticky Stuff’ ventures into the complex web of relationships, communication, and those seldom-discussed topics lurking in life’s shadowy corners, providing a candid look at the human experience.
Dawn’s mastery in capturing the essence of each moment, regardless of its nature, renders her poetry accessible and profoundly relatable. Her work traverses the spectrum from the stark realities of death to whimsical, light-hearted musings, ensuring that there truly is something within these pages for every reader. Furthermore, the collection includes an inspiring chapter dedicated to guiding readers through the poetry-writing process, encouraging them to unlock their creative potential and express their own experiences through the art of verse.
