Not so much a collection of poetry as a deeply personal and revealing prayer diary expressed in poetic form. Sally's journey scales the heights and depths of personal realisation and expresses both joy and disappointment in accessible language with which many will understand and empathise . As part of the healing process, this work has been an essential part of Sally's re-emergence from some very dark moments. Throughout, her deep love of - and encounter with - God, is a touchstone. Sally's acceptance of the unconditional grace of Jesus continues to be a catalyst of profound transformation toward peace and wholeness. The poetic imagination can be a lifeboat in an open and frightening sea. Sally's understanding that she was never alone may well inspire others who find themselves rocked by life's waves.

With tears in my eyes, I waved goodbye to the furniture and the last of my family as they disappeared with their memories stored within the furniture and precious possessions. I was to remain in the house until the new owners took possession. I had the folder, found in the attic; I excitedly unclipped and drew down the zip. The letters were wonderful, transporting me backwards in time to the 1920s. I could relate to my grandmother, describing her beautiful clothes, her family and journey to Egypt where she was to marry my grandfather. Love letters, yes, but so much more, a life, a passion that moved through time and I was able to experience and relate to their endearing love............
