What a year this has been! But I don't have to tell you that, do I? Back in August, I shared a poem, "Turning Under" which spoke of some of the harrowing days we have been experiencing, including the COVID-19 pandemic.
I would like to take a moment to remind you that I have some other poems included in a new anthology, The Social Distance: Poetry in Response to COVID-19. The book has received many compliments from readers and is available on Amazon. The poets featured are from different walks of life and their words offer a meaningful examination of how we make our way through these unusual times.
At $9.95, this handsome volume makes a fine gift for any thoughtful reader or poetry enthusiast. You can order a paperback copy from Amazon here.
Poetry and photographs in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, sheltering in place and related trials. The poets, who include doctors, lawyers, journalists, and other professionals open themselves up in non-sentimental, beautiful, and often painful verse that seeks to capture these odd and often difficult times. This book is for those who want to keep a reminder of what "social distancing" was like and to experience how others dealt with isolation and fear. Although engaged in other vocations, the contributing poets include experienced writers who are the winners of local and national contests. Several of the poets have written other books of poetry, essays, and fiction as well as numerous articles and contributions to professional publications.
