Like a soul-affirming friend, you’ll want to keep these poems of awakening to your higher presence close. With breathtaking beauty and heartwarming humanity, her clear and grounded meditations provide the comfort of authenticity and will keep you coming back for more. The quiet Farm Coast of New England, where the poet grew up, is the backdrop for seasonal poems that reveal what lies hidden beneath the surface of our lives by 'lowly listening.' Drawing inspiration from Zen, Emerson, and the poets Rumi and Hafiz he admired, the poetry of mindfulness and impermanence are followed by poetry that reflects a transformative way of being and the peace within 'that saves us.' The final section honors our Native American legacy: the Sakonnet tribe of the Farm Coast, a visit to the Hopi Chief at Third Mesa, and her poems read at Standing Rock. As a long-time practitioner of Zen, whose works are in the permanent collection at the esteemed Poets House in NYC, her poems will inspire anyone seeking a deeper sense of serenity and interconnectedness.

    Edward V Bonner
