Official synopsis Publisher
Water under Snow explores the intersection between the human and natural worlds with an eye toward what can be celebrated in both. A central theme is the call to pay attention to both worlds while we “have world enough and time.” The collection draws on imagery of the familiar, a bull moose in a school parking lot, loons on a lake seen through a window, a photographer on the Atlantic coast. Time plays a role in these relationships, as in poems that look back on childhood experiences, and in those that reflect on the mortality of things living and man-made.
