A video of my poem "The Color of It" that's in included in the anthology From Pandemic to Protest, released fall 2021 from The Poetry Box.
Thanks to co-editors Luisa A. Igloria, Aileen Cassinetto, and David Hassler for their swiftness in responding to the submission of my poem "We Are Nature." (Do they have any idea how much a prompt response means to a 70-year-old writer?) And thanks for including it in their Gallery, one of many poems under consideration for their planned print anthology The Nature of Our Times:Poems on America’s Lands, Waters,
Wildlife, and Other Natural Wonders.
