Title: Wisdom with a Smile
Review: "Life, Love, and Laughter: Gifts of the Spirit" by Helen Heightsman Gordon is a delightful collection of poems containing reflections on the human condition both humorous and compassionate. The writing is direct and spare, often eloquent. Many of the poems are rhymed and metered, but these are expressed with such ease that the form calls attention to the subject rather than to itself. Always there are people in these poems--from the daddy with a sagging rubberband mouth drawn by his child to the beloved husband with a failing mind. Highly recommended.
