Synopsis   
"My Father's Voice" with the cover featuring a photo of the author held as a babe in her father's arms, is a light-hearted look at life with more serious undertones. Using the title father to refer to her parent and to God as seen through others, the author shows the blessing and joy of loving relationships in her life.
 
TILLING MY CHILDHOOD
 
When I am an old woman
I shall not wear purple
but magenta     and every day
the same matching pants and jumper
 
I shall wear no make up
wash my hair but once a week
and let it hang out to dry
 
I shall spend my morning in bed
writing sardonic verse     eat grapefruit 
followed by toast lathered with butter 
and marmalade
 
I shall go into the garden     pull out weeds 
smell the earth     feel sun warm 
on my back      I shall rake up
gum leaves and burn them
until my childhood comes 
dancing back to me 
wreathed in their fragrance...
