The greatness of an anthology, according to Dennis Patton, President of Poets' Roundtable of Arkansas, is that it serves as "...a barometer of a moment in time. It is a wisp, a scent, a sound, a word that resonates the theme of the day".
My two poems, "Nourishing You" and "Two Ways to Look at the Moon" appear in this anthology.
"Two Ways to Look at the Moon", a poem in two voices, male and female, won an award on PRA National Poetry Day, 2016.
"Nourishing You" was originally published in 2017 by the National League of American Pen Women.
An Excerpt:
Two Ways to Look at the Moon
Voice I, Female
The moon inside me reaches for the sound of sheer silence.
Voice II, Male
I have an awareness of being alive, yet here I sit.
