The Seasons
Dear Friends,
Published on the eve of the birth of my daughter and the beginning of my fiftieth year, THE SEASONS is a selection of poems from the last twenty-five years. These poems, as the title suggests, are loosely gathered around an architecture of the seasons. I began writing them in 1989, the year that I moved to Omaha to help start the Blue Barn, and they have been a kind of ever expanding love letter since that time.
Matt Mason, Executive Director of the Nebraska Writers Collective (and kind man that he is), had this to say about the collection:
“THE SEASONS is a collection of meditations on home, heart, and the world we watch from a window in our geocentric universes, trying to figure out these planets and suns in orbit around us. Each season passes thoughtfully and wonderfully, with a splash of wisdom and a fine-tuned eye for joy."
I am excited to share this book with you and grateful to everyone who has read and responded to the poems over the years. I will continue the tradition of posting new work at The Winding Road blog and in twenty-five years (or less) I will have book number two, poems inspired by family life, ready for you.
Warmly,
Kevin
