Tasting Moments celebrates the strength of ordinary people as they gain wisdom and embrace new possibilities. Rooted in personal history but resonant with universal truths, these twenty-one poems delve into themes of love, family, nature, healing, and the passage of time. In the title poem, a child tastes lotus roots prepared by her mother, only to complete the circle decades later by serving similar dishes to her elderly mother, illustrating how love transforms and endures across generations. A Song for a Strong Soul paints a portrait of Auntie who searches for a community that shares her language, culture, and love of dancing, fights off robbers, and battles cancer. In Tai Chi, the poet shares that she chooses to play Tai Chi instead of practicing it because it is a joyful game that relaxes and regenerates. This chapbook offers a space to pause, reflect, and savor fleeting yet significant experiences. With a voice that is intimate and evocative, the collection invites readers to taste the power of remembrance and the richness of living, one moment at a time.
