These poems, written between 2020 and 2023, reflect life during a time of great upheaval and transformation in our world. A global pandemic, wildfires and hurricanes of epic proportions, and economic and political stresses all continue to play a part in the way our world is changing. And we must learn to change with it, to find not only resilience but also hope. Perhaps most importantly, we must find a common bond with all who are a part of our community.
We see our community as both local and global. We offer these pieces as reflections of our path: witnessing what is happening with clear eyes and an open heart; connecting with the living world around us; and healing through the power of connecting with our own creative and sacred spirits. We invite you to join us in this journey.
