Like strands of DNA
Or coiled brain matter,
The toad eggs float
On the pond's murky surface,
After the full moon's
Songfest,
Each dark spot
An embryo,
A mark
Barbara Fitzgerald loves words and the ways they can provide perspective on life, the natural world, and our experiences.
In a debut collection of poems penned over fifty years, she shares reflections on a variety of topics related to her life journey that has spanned from her twenties to her seventies. Within diverse original verse, a man contemplates his existence, a mantis hangs deep into January as a fossil of a nightmare under glass, love ends over dinner on a summer night, and white hairs invite candid observations about aging and death. Included is an epilogue that offers a tribute to three generations with touching poems written by her late mother and her daughter.
AngleSea is a volume of original poetry that poignantly explores nature, personal experiences, and the human condition.
