Linear Light from the Ivory Tower is the first collected volume of poetry by Sheryl Williams Mathis, lovingly preserved and published posthumously by her daughter, D. K. N. Yuko.
A deeply spiritual woman with a lifelong love of nature, philosophy, and the metaphysical, Sheryl explored life's greatest questions through poetry. Her work reflects moments of joy, grief, hope, wonder, quiet contemplation, and an enduring search for meaning. Written with honesty and compassion, these poems invite readers to pause, reflect, and see the world through a thoughtful, deeply personal lens.
Following Sheryl's passing in 2001, her daughter undertook the task of gathering decades of scattered poems and preserving them for future generations. The result is a lasting tribute to a mother's voice-a collection that might otherwise have been lost to time.
Whether you are drawn to reflective poetry, spiritual themes, or simply the beauty of heartfelt writing, Linear Light from the Ivory Tower offers an intimate glimpse into one woman's journey through life, love, nature, and the unseen world.
