Southern Girl, Yankee Roots: Danielle Thorne: Poetry (Volume)
Product Description
Volume - 85 Pages
Danielle Thorne never forgot her Yankee heritage, even as the beauty of the South shaped and influenced her path. This is the volume of a young woman finding her way through the mire of family roots and tradition, motherhood, and the society of the South. Her poems, at times, are frank - but she gracefully shares the beautiful and enlightening moments we all experience ... no matter where our feet must wander.
Excerpt:
And suddenly I was standing on the porch again Grimacing at the cries of my sister, Trying to screw the tip of my tennis shoe Into an old mouse hole- Knowing I was next.
