Ten Poems About Mothers
Candlestick Press
Ten Poems about Mothers features poems celebrating all kinds of mothers – from the mother who can’t help cooking for “several hundred million imagined diners” to the mother whose special voice for reading bedtime stories is still a vivid memory. What all the poems share is a sense of lasting love – the love that flows through the years between mother and son or daughter, surviving the twists, turns and surprises of our lives.
With poems by Laurie Bolger, Maura Dooley, Jonathan Edwards, Joanna Ingham, Jackie Kay, DH Lawrence, Carmina Masoliver, Roy McFarlane, Caleb Parkin and John Siddique. Cover illustration by Sara Boccaccini Meadows.
