In Mouth Brimming Over, Roy Beckemeyer celebrates the world in exuberant, expansive poetry, rich with evocative language. You will find in this book poems for reading aloud, poems that will resonate in your vocal cords as they unfold on the page and in your mind. Reviewer Arlice Davenport describes this book as one that explores the great Whitmanesque themes of the body, the self, the teeming earth, the wide-open horizon. Kansas Poet Laureate Emerita Wyatt Townley noted: Whether he's analyzing the geometry of the Trinity or pouring Whitman into a sonnet, Beckemeyer blends gravity with wit in this elegiac tribute to the permanence of love... And Kansas Poet Laureate Caryn Mirriam-Goldberg says: Roy Beckemeyer's poems amplify the music of being alive and illuminate the dance of being human.
