This eclectic selection of poems straddle decades, generations and continents and constitute the stories collected by the author over a lifetime. The works reflect on the human condition, what the oral historian Studs Terkel called "life and its uncertainties," love's exuberance and sad needs, birth's joy and death's dark wounds, the comedy of communal days and the wearying tears of isolating night. Its language seeks to plummet the power of the communicated word, the fragility of understanding, and the frustrations of muteness.

She has also done consulting for Peace Corps, Bread for the World, World Hunger Education, International Educational Forum, and other organizations. Her poems, articles and stories have appeared in some thirty magazines, as well as organization and association newsletters, the anthology But Can They Do Field Work?
