Your poetry Deidre is rooted in such belovedness and and rich soil loaded with seeds of hope that spring up with each word!

Poetry "is something that meets you directly in your humanity and transports you somewhere holy," was so vividly portrayed in your poem, Lesson from a Tree.

I so enjoyed reading it and loved the poetic turn at the end when you weave your fingers into your four-year-old's small, sweaty fist.

Thank you, Deidre!
