Summary

First Friday of the month means a new book recommendation! This month I am choosing a compilation by William Sieghart called The Poetry Pharmacy: Tried and True Prescriptions for the Heart, Mind, and Soul. The author has selected poems to "treat" all manner of emotional conditions. Feeling yourself reflected in someone else's words is such a gift; no matter what you are experiencing, it's a relief to know you are not alone.
