A Time of Waiting: Poems - Paperback
Description
by Charlotte Melin (Author)
Twilight stillness, long drives across the Midwest, migrating flocks, the redolent smells of basil and peaches become occasions in this collection for noticing seasonal transitions, environmental change, and human precarity. Those crisscrossing perceptions also give voice to hopes for common ground. Written mostly in 2024 and shaped in the weeks following the election, this cycle of poems moves from January to Midsummer and the December solstice. It asks implicitly whether poetry can be a kind of resistance that bears witness to the past and present by thinking about how life's small moments ground us in cyclical time even as we wait on the cusp of an uncertain future.
