there's so much goodness here in one post!! the poem has some absolutely spectucular lines and I honestly didn't realize you had published a book, so just bought it. am also SUPER excited for the list of poetry for the guys
Claire, I did indeed pack a lot of goodness in here--thanks for saying so. And yes, it occurred to me that new-ish readers may not know about Mining the Bright Birds....which is why I mentioned it. It makes me happy to know you ordered a copy; please let me know how the work lands with you.
My first book "Hearts on Pilgrimage: Poems & Prayers" was published in 2021--here's the link from my Author website for that one :-)
Jody! Thanks for the shoutout, friend! You cheer me on in so many ways. Thank you. 🤎

Jody, I loved the call to “take up our pens” in your poem. Beautifully said. You heeded the call wonderfully.
Oh thank you, Rosa. We need everyone's 'pens.'
