Produktbeschreibung
Crosswinds explores the constant tensions between the superficial and what lies beneath. This collection of poetic works articulates crosswinds that result in the aerodynamics of how we maneuver through life, whether we land or keep flying to reach a point on the compass, and reminds us that our flights through life are not always smooth. It takes the reader on a tour of poems from the unveiling on a wedding night, a father's disguise, a Sunday afternoon in the park, the fear of a towering rough exterior, to trespasses submerged in rebirth. These poems are spoken into existence from a photographic memory detailing human strife, fear, joy, and a measure of grace. Overcoming difficulty transports us further than we dared to go. Our lives depend on it. Poems from this collection have also appeared in WestWard Quarterly, Founder's Favourites (Canada), Mountain Ink, Elk River Living Magazine, Literature for the People (Malta, UK), and a juried selection in Women Speak (Women of Appalachia Project Anthology).
