Jayne Jaudon Ferrer has a goal in life - to share her thoughts and memories, while at the same time proving to the world at large that poetry need not be dry and dull.
She proves it admirably in these two beautiful little books. These are precious small books of poetry, perfect to tote around in the handbag for those quiet moments in life. They share her memories of her children, boys and girls, and being Mom for many years.
Some of these poems are hysterically funny, some touching, some a slice of everyday life that you completely relate to.
They are never dry or dull.
In late 2006, the Dew reviewed another one of her books - She of the Rib. It has the same bouncy energy as these two earlier books have and I highly suggest you check them all out. If you're on the fence regarding poetry, these will win you over!
