Claiming Light and Darkness

The poems in Claiming Light and Darkness don't try to paint pictures of nature, even when they describe surprising glimpses of it in ordinary places. They simply discover nature as they reach into the depth of darkness and light that together are essential for life. In this small collection each hour and season respond to a unique angle of the sun. Every hour of day and night offers a particular light and darkness, always with its own beauty, its own certain gift.
