Synopsis: A collection of sonnets, limericks, haiku, elegy, cinquain, ode, villanelle and couplets created in response to the mixed-media reliefs of Kathe Gregory, photographed by Bob Nesson. Reviewers call it "... a visually beautiful book: Each sculpture and poem feels in partnership.... the pairings satisfy," the poetry "speaks to our private suspicion that there are limits to our own usefulness in society, on planet earth; a suspicion that gains evidence as each of us ages... we are not offered easy nostalgia -- the grip and gripe of loss is admitted. "This post is part of NH Loves Poetry, a 2022 project of the Center for the Book at the NHSL.
