In it she shows us how to hang up our own griefs and failures to a redemptive sunlight. The world of her readers will surely respond by taking care of the real and metaphorical laundry that awaits our own tending. The title, Dead Man's Flower, cannot be better chosen. One can see the plumeria as they really are, blooms that release their perfume only as they die, or as healing graces that come to us by feelings shared by poets who decide to live and write as Jennings has done." Mildred White Greear, poet and author of Moving Gone Dancing, and other volumes of verse.
