Author Description

These poets write about passages--their own and our country's--looking deeply at the world as they find it. They investigate those profound memories that shape us throughout our lives and examine the natural world that can transform us every day. They are a community of writers, and their poems at times become a call and response, voices joined together to create images and stories that evoke and complement each other. At a time in our world when darkness feels omnipresent, these poets remind us that there is light in everything as well.--Stuart Kestenbaum, Maine's 5th Poet Laureate Poetry. Anthology.
