Description
Poetry. "Open this book at random. Read any three pages. Then close it, breathe a brief prayer, and begin at the beginning. ...BIRD IN THE HAND is a book you'll end up reading more than once."—Susan Blackwell Ramsey
"...vivid sketches, drawn from memory with an almost eerie feel of accuracy. The poet's voice is unashamedly personal, but never yields to sentiment or nostalgia. Her poems celebrate teachers and nurturers—family ties abound."—Bucky Ignatius
