In this square room there is
A feeling light as sun
on a bird's wing,
the heady scent of baby oil
a quilt with magic symbols
When he was a child, Walter Dean Myers dedicated his first poem to his mother. Forty years later, his tribute continues in this heartwarming collection of poignant verses and luminous antique photographs. Myers evokes the special bond between mother and child with the simple and timeless imagery of childhood - a warm bed, the morning sunlight, a hissing kettle, a lazy afternoon. By turns serious, funny, and joyful, this exquisite collection is a glorious celebration of family life and love.
