Hold out the fired bowl of your heart, Ginger Graziano urges, in What I Didn't Give to Goodwill. That hard-earned gesture of hope is borne through poems of grief, legacy, and resilience in this strong, three-part collection. Graziano relates the suffering of her son, dying from brain cancer, the strength she secured from a proud, Italian immigrant family, and her renewal of spirit claimed in gardening, a move to a new state, and a necessary balance of society and solitude. The memory of her son powers her determination: [W]hen moths chew holes in his jackets, / I will see light through the broken threads. Read these fine poems for their discerning light.
