Leticia in Her Wedding Dress and Other Poems represents the pinnacle of Ms. Jenkins' writing career. Within you will find a poem for just about everyone's interests: For anyone who has a pet, you will love Farfel and Barney's Poem based upon the lives of her own dogs. If you have tender memories of your grandparents, try Flashback and Down a Quiet Street. For those who recognize injustice in the world, Jacob's Brother should fill the bill. Nature lover? Read The Towering Mountains. Women's issues? When Gods Were Goddesses. Philosophy? The Plan and Whirlpool. Social issues? A Throw-Away Culture. There are also several exquisite poems in Spanish--among them, Los Ritmos de Vida and De Amor. Of course, the poem from which this volume gets its title is a touching piece reflecting deep love and appreciation for family and connection. You will indeed find this an exciting, thought-provoking, and tender compilation of poems which touches the heart and the mind. Each one is engaging with something you will want to share with someone with whom you care very much!
