I came too close to something
I could not fully grasp
With singed wings I toppled
From skies that looked full of promise
I must have missed the point when blue turned black
Now my scorched heart reminds me every day
That it is presumptuous to kiss the sun
Mary Angela Nangini's poems celebrate the richness of life and love. From the city to cottage-country and the roads in between, Nangini explores the changing seasons of her varied region. (This book will soon be reprinted in hard cover.)
