Omschrijving

I had a massive stroke, but have not given up, because I have the unconditional love of a very special animal. Writing this poetry saved me. This book is about my kitten, Tigerlilly. The only animal I have every adopted, she is my child. I know a lot of people would debate whether an animal can be that to someone. But I write this for her, knowing that love and loyalty should be honored. Animals are a beautiful blessing, especially in difficult times. As I recover, writing this poetry is about appreciating the animals in our lives, and especially their intelligence. I recently woke up in the morning and couldn't find my one-year-old kitten. I put her by herself in a room within the assisted living I am staying in so she wouldn't get out at night. When I went to find her, I realized there were a lot of construction workers there and all the windows and doors were open. I had a feeling I hope never to feel again. I did find her, but the experience changed me for the better. For my next book, I will take a deeper look at the world that is contained in a stroke, hoping by then to have solidified my perspective on it. The emotional pain of my condition needs channeling, and writing does that. When this manuscript was finished, I felt beautiful. Originally from Pasadena, Margaret Elaine Elgin now lives in Northern California, recovering from her stroke. She wrote this book about hope when there seems to be none, because in her world, an animal is a gift of love and hope. This poetry collection is her Hidden Treasure.
