It was a joy to collaborate with you, Kassi! Thrilled this is out in the world.

Lyndsey, when I read your poem I’m enthralled by the sensory images of a garden that lead to wandering, then walking forward in a hope that becomes palpable.

Thank you for sharing your work with us! 🤩

“And every soul is a country left behind /

with tattered memories abandoned on the wayside.”

These two lines could have been a complete poem in and of themselves! What beautiful work. I’m blessed to have read it this morning.

Lovely imagery. This one line connects every single living thing, birds, bees, earthworms, runaway roots, poets, starfish, all - "every single step forms

a footpath in front of me."
