Old Age And Death, Tra La: And Other Poems - Paperback

by Katherine H. Burkman (Author)

Old Age and Death, Tra La is a collection of poetry that begins with a focus on the ups and downs of old age with its fear of death and ways to overcome that fear. It moves on to explore how words may work in life and in poetry, then dramatizes the experience of cruising, of hair, of an empty nest (kids off to college, etc.) and the way weather is evolving. The book ends with poems that explore many aspects of love as well as other considerations.
