In THE IMPORTANCE OF DANDELIONS: POEMS OF PROMISE,
Linda DeGree turns her storytelling gift to poetry, and the result is a collection as warm, purposeful,
and quietly powerful as everything she writes.
The dandelion, overlooked, underestimated, and yet
impossibly resilient, is the perfect symbol for
this collection. Just as a dandelion finds a way to
bloom in the most unlikely places, Linda's poems
find beauty, hope, and meaning in the simple,
everyday moments that most people walk right past.
These are poems of promise for anyone who has ever
felt overlooked, uncertain, or in need of a reminder
that their life has purpose and their story matters.
"I have always believed that poetry is one of the
most honest ways to speak to the human heart," says
author Linda DeGree. "These poems are for anyone
who needs to be reminded that they matter, just
like a dandelion."
Perfect for poetry lovers, educators, faith
communities, and anyone searching for a little
beauty and hope in their day.
