Helen Marie Casey’s new poetry chapbook, “You Kept Your Secrets”, is available from Finishing Line Press. Susan Edwards Richmond has written of the book: “In this deeply affecting collection, Helen Marie Casey chronicles the aftermath—and persistence—of loss in the absence of a beloved child. “What do we become when we cease to be/who we were?” the poet asks, a question that resonates for subject, author, and reader alike. These poems both celebrate a brief life, “you/young boy, hawk-like, spreading/your sweatered wings wide” and map the ever-widening circles of pain and joy.”
