Echoes of Reflection: The Poetry Collection of Laurie Weissgarber

Echoes of Reflection is a collection of poetry by Laurie Jean Weissgarber, a woman who was a beloved mother, wife, sister, and friend with a big heart, from Mid-Hudson Valley, New York.

The collection is a compilation of ~200 poems collected, starting in 1985, throughout the life of the author that reflect on various themes such as love, friendship, nature, and life.

Some poems are written by Laurie, some are by well known and lesser known authors, and many are from unknown sources. The poems are a mix of length and style grouped together by subjects. Each chapter starts with a short piece of writing by Laurie sourced from her journals and college papers; with a forward written by Laurie’s elder son.

Laurie Jean's love for nature and the beauty of life is evident in the poems she chose to add to her posthumously published collection, which is enjoyable whether you're a poetry lover or a newcomer to the genre.
