To Keep the Light Burning: Reflections in Times of Loss is a particular book of poetry and prose put together with the aim to be of help to those experiencing loss and grief from death.

A collection of poems that could be read at funerals; traditional burials or cremations. Poems for now, when many need a different way to express their loss, and may or may not choose a religious ceremony. Linking this with the traditional ways we in Ireland cope with and honour the dead.
