My book spine poem for NPM 2017:
She walks in beauty
A jar of tiny stars
Awakening the heart
Opening a door
House of light
Pass the poetry, please!

Beautifully illustrated free verse story of
the "contrabands" of the Civil War, of
Emancipation Oak, and the
beginning of slavery's end
Well, you know which one I adore, and that's "Used Book Shop", but I also love "Untitled" and the others, too. Lovely gifts from you ("U"). Happy Sunday and World Book Day!
