“Here we have ‘poems with imagery chiseled as precise as haiku’
to those with ‘condensations of allusions and a wide gamut of feeling’;
poems that celebrate ‘childhood wonder to the intimacy of love,
its ritual bonds and mystical eroticism;’ and pay
‘eloquent tribute to death, with choking feelings of grief’.
Here are poems that matter.”

“These poems sparkle.
Here is daily life...their light clear and already refracted, the ordinary writ large. What wonderful poems.... I’m full of admiration for them --- those flitting moments of our lives --
the watching of a child in discovery, a cat, a tree, a love and a deep loss. These are poems that speak of our own discoveries and some of the deepest dimensions of reality.”
-Ellen Spolsky, Ph.D. ,Jerusalem
