Dancing on Uneven Ground

Barbara Raphael’s deeply personal poetry faces grief and aging, nature and love head on. Dancing on Uneven Ground reveals her depth of feeling through poems that give voice to a life rich with nuance. Her landscape encompasses the experiences of loss as she moves through the shifting shades of grey in this not so black and white world. Dancing on Uneven Ground celebrates, weeps for and touches ever so lightly the life cycles in our day to day moments of hope, loss, despair and love. In these poems, Barbara Raphael allows us to glimpse a vulnerable well of insight and feeling living in the heart of a strong and independent woman who is compelled to love, and therefore to see. May we all be blessed with such a friend. Ann Mortifee, CM, Performer, Composer, Author of In Love with the Mystery
