The Wind Softly Murmurs: Poems of Family Love and Loss - Paperback

by Sharon Arthur (Author)

The Wind Softly Murmurs is for anyone who has ever grieved over the passing of a loved one. These poems arose from the poet's efforts to resolve the grief that followed the death of her parents. This book reflects her transformative journey that began while she was immersed in her parent's love. Her progress was suspended at their deaths, but she ultimately recovered through the process of writing.

These profound, lyrical poems ask us to contemplate our own lives and perceptions in order to move towards healing and a deeper spirituality. They urge us to meditate on death, loss, family, love, eternal life, and renewal. They encourage us to embrace change, as it ultimately leads to evolution and new life. The poet hopes this uplifting message of eternal life and renewal will bring solace to the readers, nurturing their souls in their bereavement.

Throughout our lives, there is loss. As we age, the losses seem to come more frequently. It always hurts, but there is value in the pain. With every loss that is handled in the right spirit, we find ourselves a little stronger.
