Kindnesses . . .

A journey through the seasons of grief -
poems, prayers, and joyous observations

By Terry Walton Illustrations by Byrd Platt
Rosalie Ink Publications, 2001

Soft cover, 66 pages, 6 1/2" x 6 1/2", ISBN 0-9711869-0-1
Quantity and pastoral care discounts available—email for details

A beautifully illustrated small book - Kindnesses . . . A journey through the seasons of grief - poems, prayers, and joyous observations - is newly published by Long Island author Terry Walton. The book is drawn from a journal kept during the illness and death of the author's sister six years ago, and reflects the solace of kindnesses shown her at that time. Watercolor illustrations by artist Byrd Platt appear throughout the text.

Kindnesses includes poems and prayers sent by friends and intermixed with the author's grateful and cheering observations, arranged by season, of the ordinary details of her day. The book is described as "absolutely delightful - poignant and heartfelt and so wise."

Kindnesses' final cover proof was received by the author moments after two planes hit New York's World Trade Center; the book's dedication adds: "And, as this book goes to press, to the September 11 friends, families, and rescuers."

To offer your own kindnesses experience, or poems and prayers, please email the author at TWalton@RosalieInk.com
