Notes from the Sidelines Leslie Anne Miller

Many people feel "sidelined" from our busy and preoccupied culture at some time in their lives, whether by unemployment, injury, illness, disability or retirement. Poems such as Suffering Hope, Sidelines and Regrets describe a journey of struggle for perspective and meaning. Other poems including Old Sweaters, Clutter and Ode to E-Mail, celebrate the humor, playfulness and joy of little things and everyday life. Thirty years later, people such as Bill, Louie and Kitty, provide irony, fun and inspiration for the journey. Notes from the Sidelines will leave you more thoughtful, inspired, playful and appreciative of the struggles and joys of life.
