HARDCOVER EDITION.This collection of previously published poems and short stories is a tribute to the creativity and skill of Orpha June Coburn-Jaquish (1931-2002), a truly unique and wonderful woman who saw life as few are privileged to view it. As you open these pages you will step into her world and travel with her through her youth into her winter years, sharing her passion for life. It is a life of tears and joy, sunshine and thunder, pain and joy, birth and death... all that life has to offer, and more. And it is presented in a way that only Orpha June could have done.
