Bonnie Thurston (Author)
Bonnie Thurston’s Forgotten Futures: a memoir is a tender heart’s cry and a passionate celebration in one. There is deep poignancy and longing here, but not a mawkish or maudlin word. We travel in two landscapes – the world inhabited with wonder for each small detail, and the internal world of half a couple, observing both the relationship’s moments of grace, joy and intimacy and those of wounding, longing and loss. In supple, accessible language, honed to beauty, these poems resonate with a sense of the sacredness of small things and the transforming power of memory.
‘When Love Is Passed’ When love is passed to you
on a bone china plate
like Petits Fours on a doily,
accept with gratitude. Life holds enough
awful, heavy crockery,
and we have all eaten
