Molly's Daughter Maureen Cassidy Jenkins

Many of the poems in Molly's Daughter are about the people coming and going in one's life. They come together, move apart in a sensuous rhythm that strengthens and bonds us eternally. Many of the poems are autographical and some are not. Some are early family life as a daughter of Irish immigrants and working-class portraits of life in Pittsburgh. Some are memories of departed parents and relatives and some are poems of womanhood, motherhood, travel and romance. This book is a collection of the poetic images that have shaped my life. I hope you enjoy.
