About This Book

A compact lyric sequence set amid tidal marshes and meadowland, the poems use recurring images of low tide, wind, flowers, birds, and seasonal light to explore memory, longing, and the passage of time. Brief, sensory pieces alternate personal yearning and elegiac loss with attentive natural description, tying human feeling to the rhythms of the landscape. The tone ranges from wistful nostalgia to quiet acceptance, repeatedly returning to motifs of spring renewal and vanished presences. Together the lyrics form a tightly keyed meditation that blends elegy and buoyant natural observation into a cohesive reflection on recollection and renewal.
