and awake to the edges of things in the clear seeing that poetry requires.
Above all, this is a poetry book for travellers re-negotiating the shape

in service of the Divine.

"Sometimes you feel like some other human being has lived for a while
inside your head....An inspiring and liberating collection ... to return
to, to buy, read and give as gifts to friends" (Caeia March, Review)
Astonishingly rich poetry, full of spirit
and humour, these poems touch the reader at the deepest level. Rachael draws
much of her inspiration from nature and her love for the Goddess, as well
as from her Jewish background, and uses poetry to express different aspects
of the human journey: death and loss, family, relationships and she comments
with humour on the challenges of aging.
