Blue California Sky is both homage to the varied and rich landscapes of California and poignant glimpses into the human experience: grief, trauma, loss, change, and also love, joy, wonder, and connection-to one's self, to others, and to the natural world.

Included in the collection is poem "Once each year," nominated for a Pushcart Prize in 2022 and winner of the 2023 Los Gatos Poetry Contest awarded by the town's poet laureate, in addition to three poems featured in the Fevers of the Mind Poetry Showcase in August of 2023.…mehr
