A Kaleidoscope Wardrobe: Hwyls of a Lifetime
From dictionary.com: hwyl / (ˈhuːɪl) / noun, emotional fervor, as in the recitation of poetry. Ms. Bellacosa wrote this collection of poetry over a period spanning five decades (1965-2013). The poems touch upon diverse subjects, ranging from the magic of the holidays to a child, to her love for animals and Nature, to fables, the search for identity, to alcoholism, to culture clash, to the clash of good against evil, to feminist issues and the struggle for freedom, to love, and more about love. The poems draw from the author's observations of human nature, animal nature, and Nature. This poetry collection truly is a
'kaleidoscope wardrobe' of Ms. Bellacosa's memories of her life and the people - and other creatures - she has chanced to meet. People, animals, and the earth itself all create music - sounds, rhythms, and melodies. Though only the first poem in this collection has accompanying sheet music, the author hopes that the reader will hear the music that accompanies each poem.
