"Sunflower Sky" is the third & concluding volume of the trilogy begun with "Crow on the Wire" & continued with "The High Lonesome Sound". This volume is also a poetic journal covering the summer & early fall, & mostly set in Portland, Oregon. Although "Sunflower Sky" is connected to the earlier volumes, each can be read & enjoyed separately. There's a distinct focus on time, mortality, & the respite found in love & compassion in these poems.
