Lyn’s story begins in 1951 in western Canada. Though her early years are filled with music and love, she is lonely. Her beloved father, a musician, is often on tour living his own unimpeded life while the rest of his family struggles daily with poverty and dodging the rent collectors. This chaos causes Lyn, a very sensitive young girl, to begin to fragment. Nowhere can she find solid ground. The main characters in her life either leave or die. Then, in 1964, while walking home from school, she is brutally raped, causing a severe break in her spirit. With her inner being shattered, she over-indulges in food, alcohol, and drugs to dull the pain. Over time, she withstands a string of abusive experiences and relationships that always end in heartbreak. Read about the tragedy of the four miscarriages she endures, the attempts at suicide, and several devastating medical diagnoses. Then, read on to find out how her inner strength, determination, and a deep spiritual belief in a Divine Force she simply calls LOVE, helps her to heal. Though faced with the on-going challenges of her systemic illnesses, Lyn ultimately triumphs to live a life of joy, peace, and service to others. The keys of faith and willingness unlock the door and ultimately make her whole.

"In the lyrical tradition of Robert Frost and William Butler Yeats, Burt Porter's A Spiral Wind is a wise and lovely celebration of hawks and falcons, waterbirds and wildflowers, literature, love, family, and a life that couldn't possibly be better lived. A Spiral Wind is a testimony to the power of poetry to affirm and illuminate the natural world, and all of us beings who inhabit it, in all its many splendors." -Howard Frank Mosher, novelist, Disappearances, Where the Rivers Flow North "Burt Porter's poems have the strong and sturdy calm that comes from their regularly cadenced and rhymed verses, without sentimentality. These are straightforward, honest poems of love for this world: poems that embody a formal, down-home elegance in which we can clearly hear the legacy of Shakespeare, Marvel and Donne. Here also are the close and accurate observations of a knowledgeable countryman and an accomplished naturalist. This book is a treasure trove of country wisdom and insight, full of lessons from the wild." -David Budbill, poet and playwright, Judevine, Moment to Moment: Poems of a Mountain Recluse

There is a beauty in sadness, for it is the darkness without which you cannot appreciate the light. In my mid-20's, I went through a period of extreme pain and sadness. I faced one heartbreak after another, until I felt I would burst or fall to pieces. During that time, poetry was one of the few things that helped keep me together. These poems are the actual poems I wrote during those few years when pain was everywhere I turned. But through it all, I clung to hope... hope that things would change, hope that it would all be better someday, somehow. I was right, but I couldn't know that then. I could only hope. That hope carried me through to where I am today, and you can see it peeking out in these poems, though it is sometimes buried by sadness. To me, these poems are like a journal of not just my pain - which seems so far away now it's almost like a vivid dream - but also my strength, my hope, the belief I clung to, the triumph I experienced in coming out the other side into beautiful brightness. It is a record of part of what made me who I am today. If you are in a place of sadness, my wish is for these poems to show you that you are not alone, and to show you that as deep as my pain was, today my life is full of joy and brightness... and if it happened for me, it can happen for you. There is always hope.
