Editorial Reviews

"These deceptively simple poems are alive with the small details that comprise the natural world—birds, sky, water, grasses. For lovers of poetry, for sure, but also those who love nature and want to experience it through fresh and frank eyes. A book to treasure." Mary Reynolds Thompson
