Exploring the emotional journey of a woman who sacrifices her dream of motherhood for love, the narrative delves into her relationships with two husbands—one who cheats and another who has children from a previous marriage. Despite her deep desire to be a mother, she navigates the complexities of love, sacrifice, and the impact of her choices on her identity and happiness. The story poignantly examines the consequences of becoming childless through marriage and the profound effects it has on her life.
Exploring the complexities of faith and personal loss, the narrative follows a church pianist grappling with her thoughts during services. As she navigates her role amidst the backdrop of grief from losing her husband to Alzheimer's, she reflects on the challenges of leading a choir, the dynamics of church music, and the underrepresented voices of women in a male-dominated environment. Through a blend of humor and sincerity, the poems reveal the intricate balance between devotion and everyday distractions in the life of a church minister.
When Sue Lick’s husband’s charming forgetfulness worsens into dementia, she trades her life of writing, music, and travel with the love of her life for years of caregiving, guilt, and impossible decisions. And yet the love remains.
