Featured Work
What Falls to Ground
'What Falls to Ground' is a meditation on the marvel of gravity and the small, broken things that lead us to grace. The poems in this collection commune lyrically with trees and earth, spoons and sky, moths and mortality. They reflect on the earthly path to the celestial, and the magic of physics, nature, loss and renewal.
