Blending Colors

In Blending Colors ritual observance and devotional attention reveal territories where dividing lines between the living and the dead are blurred, where ordinary experiences shade to unexpected perspectives. Shining briefly within seasonal changes, and flashing from crepuscular moments of Earth’s turnings, the poems frame loss and confusion in quiet observation, attend to grief and loneliness with imagination, polish memories with concentrated reflection. Throughout the book, birds and animals, authors and artists, ghosts and strangers, and many others appear and inspire. By turns meditative, aphoristic, and comic, Blending Colors is a palette for readers to ponder and enjoy.
