Grace Period

by Gary Miranda

From a review of Listeners at the Breathing Place : [Miranda's] "best is breathtaking. Beyond the words, whatever is is light. A poet who can make us know, with this intensity, what we may do when words reach into silence, even the silences between the stars, has begun to tell us of the place for love. Certainly we can want no better."-- Michael Heffernan, Poetry

[SmarterLilac · Rating 3 out of 5]

Starts slow and with a narrow focus, (domesticity, the natural world) but gradually widens to more universally appealing topics. The author is certainly a deep thinker and strong observer. Reminds me a little of Robert Bly and Bly's reflections on fathers and sons.
