Poetry. California poet Daphne Crocker-White's voice is the voice of the collective searching for answers...a poignant sense of loss, anger, and danger. Readers can be glad they didn't have to go through the woundings of this childhood, yet will recognize their own along the way (CB Follett). SKYLARK, her first book of poems, assembles the author's reflections, recollections, and observations into a series which ends on a note of spiritual celebration. With illustrations by Ellen Heneveld Hallsted.
