My Basket of Words

By Eva Mewes

While we were searching for a title to this book, I read a poem in Women, Writing, and Soul-Making: Creativity & the Sacred Feminine by Peggy Tabor Millin. That’s it! I thought.

The words exactly expressed the pieces that I have included in this book. We contacted her and asked if we could use her phrase as a title and reference a few of her words, too. She said yes. Thank you, Peggy.

These are her words which resonated with me.

“Each carries a basket of words
and approaches where I stand by the altar.
One by one, each sprinkles her words
like petals across the crystal table,
and says,
These are my words,
all of myself…”

I hope you enjoy My Basket of Words.
