But they led to a formative time for minorities and women. These decades helped define me personally as well.</p><p><br></p><p>All along the way I wrote poetry as a release for my personal feelings of unrest. In 1978 I self published a slim book of poetry titled <em>New Day</em>. This was no small task prior to the Internet. </p><p><br></p><p>I was leading workshops and presentations for various groups at the time and began taking a few books along with me. I had no idea what to expect but we soon went through three printings. A handful of counselors used them in group therapy for those experiencing similar frustrations. </p><p><br></p><p>And now, 50 plus years later, I've been encouraged to republish New Day. I've added a few more poems that represent, for me, those life changing decades. </p><p><br></p><p>--Cecily Crossman</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Cecily Crossman first published her book of poems 42 years ago and they are as fitting and timely in 2020 as they were in the 70s.
