Synopsis

**WINNER of CT Press Club Award for Best Poetry Book**

Funny, poignant and human, this delightful book of poems takes you inside the mind of its 86-year-old author, with stirring reflections on aging, nature, New York City, anxiety and other topics. From well-observed snapshots of our world today to pivotal childhood moments frozen in memory, you’re in for an exciting journey. The engaging variety of poetry styles including free verse, rhyming, narrative, haikus and more plus the dynamic photography creates a thoughtful and vivid experience for the reader.

Dr. Marlou Newkirk at the age of 82 fulfilled a dream: she became a published writer. Since then, she has gone on to become an award-winning author of both short stories and magazine articles. Now, at 86, she is proud to be releasing her first book of poetry. Before becoming a writer, Marlou earned a doctorate in Education from Columbia University and spent many years at the forefront of adult education in New York City.

“Marlou's work -- whether it's prose or poetry -- always has a profound effect on me. Her intelligence, wit, and meaningful musings on life will stay with you for a long time to come."”
~ Robin H. Phillips, Editor of Fairfield Magazine

“Wonderful! Relatable inspiring poems full of whimsy, depth and insight!”
~ Megan Smith-Harris, Editor of Wilton Magazine

This book is proof that it's never too late to fulfill your dreams!
