"The book is of thresholds and crossings, of losses balanced by wonder, of casting and gathering and the hushed, contrary air between water and sky, heaven and earth. Each poem is a painting tempered by curiosity, powerful and enchanting." - Sarah J Corbett “Behind the invisible window of each poem in, A Thousand Windows, is a depth of emotions emitting the collective power to leave readers feeling as if they must not turn away, less they lose their “window” of opportunity to interact with something intimately distant — unknown — and yet infinitely familiar.” THE US REVIEW OF BOOKS “A Thousand Windows, is a journey for the senses, a tour de force of storytelling, with romance and imagery that captivates the heart with words as fluid as water.” — Bostonian Review

“Come dance through me in this ancient body aligned with the stars wheeling. Day will fall into night and your pain and shadows will fill my empty glass and I will drink your darkness with the light. And a thousand wings will blush the pillars of rose within an ocean of polar eyes. And the blood will thunder through the great heart and the tiny fingers will reach over the arctic sun to touch the hand dreaming of warmer birds.”
