Susan Elizabeth Hale

Lisa’s poem for my mother is such a beautiful tribute and it was a healing process to be interviewed. Every time I read the poem it touches me and it helps me remember all the beauty of my mother’s life and what she gave me.

After our wonderful old Siamese cat died, I thought it would be comforting to ask Lisa to write a poem as a meaningful way to remember him. Sharing my thoughts, feelings, and memories with Lisa was, in itself, healing for me.

Lisa’s first draft, sent to me for my review, surprised me. The words and phrases came directly from our conversation, but in the poem they suddenly took on so much more meaning. The piece perfectly described my experience of my beloved pet.

The poem, printed and framed, has graced my hallway for years now, and warms my heart every time I walk by it, bringing my friend back to mind so fully.

Lisa asked penetrating questions that triggered long lost memories of years gone by, years when I was a child enthralled by my quirky Great (great!) Aunt Mary.

I had only one small change for Lisa’s first draft. It is uncanny how well she captured both my Aunt and my relationship with her. Lisa’s poem is like having a song written just for us, our connection captured for all time.
