The Broken Cookie Jar

In The Broken Cookie Jar, Terry White opens the lid on memory, grief, love, and the quiet moments that shape a life. With his signature blend of plainspoken truth and poetic depth, White explores what's lost, what lingers, and what still sweetens the tongue long after it's gone.

These poems are intimate snapshots-fragments of childhood kitchens, whispered prayers, faded photographs, and the ache of things we wish we could fix. Whether he's writing about broken promises or the comfort of warm biscuits, White invites the reader into a world where nothing is perfect, but everything is felt.

Raw, tender, and sharply observed, The Broken Cookie Jar is a collection for anyone who has ever held a memory too tightly-and found beauty in the crumbs.
