When A Spirit Opens Elizabeth Martina Bishop Phd

A companion piece to two other collections "When a Spirit Open" continues a foray into philosophical discourse. Poet Elizabeth Martina Bishop uses poetry as an excuse to pose impossible questions. We don't expect the reader to answer the questions but merely savor the possibility for the enjoyment of poetry. Delving into the mystery of life which can include birthday celebrations as markers for the life cycle, these poems lend the reader a chance to sit down and relax. Reflecting on the nature of life can sometimes bring about a realization regarding life's many seasons. Why not foster a sense of gratitude for life. When life becomes a flashpoint for improvisational poems, anything can happen. The imagination can grow and a spirit can open like a flower.
