Goddess of Swizzle invites the reader to a feast for here and now.
A recurring theme, given voice in the title poem, is a call to focus on and value the
present moment-with its beauty and sorrows-rather than on some perfect scenario.
Ah, an occasional flight of fancy!
Swizzle means to stir or mix, as if with a swizzle stick. In this collection,
the author-who earned her MBA from the Maryland Bartending Academy-
stirs up memories from childhood, adolescence, midlife, including her passion
for ekphrastic poems.
This collection includes reflections on: Family, Colors, Love, Loss, Art, Healing, Celebration, Friendship, Community, Culture, Imagination.
Each poem is a story/vignette, and each includes mention of a food or drink,
to highlight ways we nurture ourselves and one another. These poems serve up
slices of the personal, yet spring from a universal palate.
May Goddess of Swizzle stimulate deep resonance for all who partake.
And may these poems offer satisfaction, joy, and refreshment.
