What Should be Respected and Preserved
When listening to Barbara Spring's sincere voice, one is drawn in to what she deeply cares about, what she celebrates and mourns. These works are attached to what should be respected and preserved and to what has been lost because of a disregard for its spiritual essence. Her project is deeply rooted in the tradition of those who know we are of the earth.

--Jack Ridl author of Broken Symmetry

Like an exquisite bottle of wine!
Barbara Spring sent me the transcript of her new book Sophia's Lost and Found months ago ...but you know how the sweet things are... a bottle of wine you stumble upon that you make last much longer than wished. But you must because of a flavor like from a dream or another life that makes you want to dance or cry or laugh. So I read a poem every few days or so to make it last and never told a soul because there are too many secrets here and so very few would understand. Today I brought home another bottle of Ravenswood Merlot and started reading Sophia's again and telling everybody I know.
