Poems of a baby boomer, Pamela Lillian Valemont, an Australian woman born post-war, in 1947, who grew up in the 60's, the Bee Gees, Elvis Presley and Beatles era, and lived through the political turmoil of the Vietnam War, the rise of the conservation/environmental-driven alternative society, the abolition of Apartheid, and the granting of land rights to Australian aborigines, and her interest and participation in these issues and events is apparent in her poetry. Poems reflecting Australian life, up to and including the present day. Her latest poems, Barack Obama, (a tribute to the President of the USA), Women of Liberia, (about the women who forced their country's leader Charles Taylor, to attend peace talks that ended the Civil War in 2003), Holding Hands And Jumping, (about the 2001, 9/11 terrorist attack on the Twin Towers), and Children of a Waterborne Holocaust, (about the children swept away and drowned during the historic flood in Queensland, January 2011), are included in this book.
