“Colors of Grief; A poetic journey of love, loss and hope” is a collection of 30 poems and illustrations about grief. This book was inspired by the author’s own experience of grief after losing her spouse; however, as grief is universal, this book is truly intended for anyone who has lost a loved one. The book can also be useful for people who want to help, and better understand the experience of grief. Finally, it can be used in bereavement groups, as each poem can elicit a discussion. The poems describe the emotions and feelings experienced while grieving. The illustrations, created by the author using watercolor and ink, are a complement to the poems and make this book unique.
