Ordinary Splendor - Paperback
Description
by Judith Waller Carroll (Author), Lana Hechtman Ayers (Editor)
"Judith Waller Carroll's Ordinary Splendor evokes the magic of everyday living with direct language as well as incisive metaphors and similes: 'the
heron's long neck pointed like a compass needle.' 'Such a fuss about the stars, ' writes Carroll, a poet who sees clearly the many miracles that are often
overlooked but who concludes that 'at the end, / this is what I will remember.' Imbued with insight and questions that celebrate a lifetime of experiences, these poems explore the ache of living with wide open eyes: 'Yes, I know. Somewhere, someone / is doing unspeakable things to another' but also with understanding that there is so much more."
-KB Ballentine, Edge of the Echo and The Light Tears Loose
"Judith Waller Carroll is a master of imagery. And of nailing a poem in the
last line."
-The Lascaux Review
