St. Michael’s Episcopal Church in Arlington, VA is having an online art exhibition in response to the pandemic – here is a collection of poems shared including mine on p. 27 “Always” under the theme of Solace.

This poem comes from her second poetry collection The Wisdom of Wild Grace, being published by Paraclete Press this October. The collection is filled with poems reminding us of what it means to belong to the world of wildness and to honor nature as intimate companion.
