Swirls on a Green Plate – A rare book no longer in print

by Annie O’Dell and Dene Hellman

POETRY FOR STRONG WOMEN:

When in crisis be strong. Dance, dance, dance! Amongst poetry themes are facial scars, wrinkles, highway driving and work, mini pads, malls, widowhood, big butts, cats and meeting the Lord in bunny slippers. Even death brings humor as a scarlet plumed horse is planned at mothers request, to bear her body in her favorite red boots. Embrace the sacred feminine through mother/daughter humor.
