'At their best, reflections dance and sparkle, bringing joy and a sense of wonder. They never quite capture the original, but they translate it to another form. Some of these poems reflect the light caught in my daughter's camera during her work in a village community in the Ethiopian Afar. Others are more random shafts of light caught in the prism of my mind and split into a rainbow of reflections about life and death and the half-world of hopes and dreams that lies between. As is the case with rainbows, they are composed both of sunshine and drops of rain. I trust that somewhere amongst them you will also find a pot of gold. At the very least, if you buy the book, you will be contributing to a pot of gold to sustain my daughter's work with various NGOs in Third World countries.' (Publication summary)
