This anthology of poems, parodies, and song lyrics is an adventure in the expressive possibilities of words. With the goal of finding just the right words to express her thoughts and feelings, the author considers a wide variety of topics that include nature, astronomy, justice, Jewish holidays, visits to the doctor, and even ping-pong. The underlying message is that poetry can help us reveal deeper insights into everyday events that we often take for granted, while also providing humor, comfort and enjoyment.
