Feather & Fire - Paperback

by Cynthia Leslie-Bole (Author)

From exaltation to anguish and everything in between, this collection by poet Cynthia Leslie-Bole delves deep into our desire to connect with other humans, with the natural world, and with spirit, while expanding the boundaries of what we imagine to be our separate selves. Sometimes playful, often searingly vulnerable, her poems reflect questions many of us have as we try to make meaning of our brief lives and the mysteries we sense moving in and around us. The poems in Feather & Fire explore loss and grief, finding kinship in surprising places, and making peace with both shadow and light. Guided by the aspiration "to convey a true thing, at least once," they flow from expanded awareness while remaining grounded in the joys and challenges of living our everyday lives.
