What Hands Can Hold

by Ami Kaye

Overview

What Hands Can Hold is a luminous collection with compelling emotion and insights. Some of the poems exude softness and beauty, and some like Elegy of Complaint, grit and blood, “We walk the shores/to bathe feet/that have trampled/ fossils and bones.” The poet shares her inner self without angst or contrived embellishments. She does it with such lyrical grace and lack of pretension, you forget how intelligent and well constructed each poem is. She draws the reader into her poetic world to be absorbed by the nearly physical touch of her language. These revelations are a magical gift, and once you begin to read, you think, “Ah, yes. I understand, I have felt that, and here in these words, I feel it once again!” —Julie George, Heritage Writings.
