In MOSSLIGHT, Kimberley Pittman-Schulz invites readers on a walking meditation, a crooked path through loss and longing where solace shimmers in the shadows, rooted in the rhythms of the natural world. Each poem is a small epiphany offered by unlikely mentors-decaying redwood logs and indifferent ravens, \"the golden gel\" of a banana slug and a blur of wet bees, tiny fish caught in a shoe, a dog's black face leaning from a truck window, even \"eight rusty ants dragging a dead wasp through the grass\" that challenge us with, \"Who are you, anyway?\" Like a lost explorer-part-naturalist, part-Buddhist-the voice in this collection leads the reader deep into the present moment, \"stark and lush,\" reminding us that while \"alone each foot burns\/into cold layers\" there is a larger interconnectedness, as \"even in wet snow falling, \/the wren sings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter exploring woods and watersheds on both coasts, Kimberley Pittman-Schulz lives among redwoods and the Pacific Ocean of Northern California with her wildlife biologist husband and two cats.
