What is it about stones
sitting silently on beaches
that pulls my eyes to gaze at them? p7

With her poets sensibility, DS celebrates the simple things that constellate a life, and the complex emotions that must fade a bit before grasping.

Be glad then of distance of thought
and that quiet voice within
that begs attention...
and sheltering our broken hearts
with hands as cold as
centuries
old
ice.
from the golden bowl p53

we too must learn to let go
and scatter love everywhere.
from the golden cloak p28
