If you choose to read this stunning collection - and you absolutely should - you'll be immersed in images of the natural world so vivid and fresh that you'll feel like you are experiencing nature's beauty and mystery for the first time. But these poems are populated not only by snakes, bears, goats, birds, and mountains, but also by human nature - our "loves and betrayals," our joy and regret, our gratitude and envy. The interplay between the two is at the heart of these wise and inviting poems.-Eric Nelson, author of Horse Not Zebra This graceful poetry transports you into the solace of Karen Jackson's hamlet where children gather the feathers of a lace-white peacock named Monsieur and mischievous goats "huddle beside the barn as a nanny labors" then "sleep circled beneath the stars." I urge you to savor these poems, which I found rare and lovely as a "redbird's wing brushing my cheek."
