Description
These lyrical poems mark waypoints on a life-long journey. The poet struggles to find reason in a chaotic world where senseless cruelty is sometimes met with selfless kindness. She sees miracles in flocks of migrating cranes, reads life's secrets in a child's eyes. In love with the beauty and power of language, she uses it to reflect what she sees, to give stifled feelings a voice, to illustrate meaning with metaphor. In love with the world's physical beauty, she finds joy in wild places, solace in recurring seasons. In love with the diverse community around her, she embraces other peoples' stories and shares her own. Born in one country, raised in another, yet belonging in neither, the young poet searches for her identity; the aging poet strives to make peace with her past and welcome her future. "Waypoints" celebrates the ties that bind the human family together across generations, across barriers of culture and language, across national boundaries.
