      A tender yet passionate commentary on loss and grief.

      Bonnie Thurston''s Forgotten Futures: a memoir is a tender heart''s cry and a passionate celebration in one. There is deep poignancy and longing here, but not a mawkish or maudlin word. We travel in two landscapes - the world inhabited with wonder for each small detail, and the internal world of half a couple, observing both the relationship''s moments of grace, joy and intimacy and those of wounding, longing and loss. In supple, accessible language, honed to beauty, these poems resonate with a sense of the sacredness of small things and the transforming power of memory.

      ''When Love Is Passed''

      When love is passed to you
      on a bone china plate
      like Petits Fours on a doily,
      accept with gratitude.

      Life holds enough
      awful, heavy crockery,
      and we have all eaten
      more than our share of sand.
