Lillian's poetry is an illumination of femininity. Channeling goddesses from her own life, Lillian pens a heartsong of female perspective, exploring loss and longing at each stage of life: as the Maiden, the Mother and the Crone. "Verses From the Middle of the Bed," her first chapbook, is filled with both blossoming prose and hushed brevity. Images of sparkling dresses, blowup dolls, Barbie, sisters, and young domestic life swirls across the page as Lillian embarks on the labyrinthine path of her life's work: uplifting women through sharing the unique bond that the appreciation of sisterhood creates.

This chapbook is dedicated to my two magical grandmothers, Beulah Marie and Grace Lois, to my mother, Janet Ann, and my three sisters Pauline Lenore, Abigail Leigh and Kathleen Morgan.
