Synopsis

Here’s Company celebrates moments when the word we replaces I. Here lyric poems invite you to share secrets, hopes, dreams, hugs, word-play, and memories while the recent isolation of a pandemic and threatening wars lurking in the background make company especially precious. Ranging from the first spare glimpses to more expansive meditations, these poems celebrate such company as that of a homeless woman bringing cheer to passing drivers, a poet and a designer of earthenware who, without ever meeting each other, make similar artistic moves, an instrument “you have to love,” and a loved one’s “A-440” of dependable tuning. These are poems to read aloud, poems of resilience, poems that reveal the joy we can share through our language.
