A Field, Part Arable is a chapbook of well-wrought poems steeped in spiritual search, awareness, longing, and deep appreciation; all with great attention paid to each line, each word. The feet of these quiet poems are muddy with child-like observation and the wonder of a rural life inhabited by serious thought and the wisdom of elders. Every poem is a prayer, a conscious rumination: challenging, endeavoring for understanding, acknowledging what has been, and ultimately, finding hope for what lies ahead.
