Alumna Kelly Moffett's New Book
We’re happy to pass along news of Kelly Moffett’s new book, A Thousand Wings, available through Amazon and Salmon Poetry. Kelly wrote this collection of poetry during retreats at a Trappist Monastery.
Poet Sarah Gorham has this to say of the collection: “Kelly Moffett believes the spirit lies in things–in landscape, air, water. Listen to this, from “Devotion”: “You have become both a wall and a parachute./ Just as lichen can be lichen but also holy food.” In her collection, A Thousand Wings, she leads us through a single day of reverent watching and listening, waiting for transformation, but remaining stubbornly human. Would that we all slowed down enough to want what she wants, “a more tangible space, like some thorny brush,/ I could stare into.” A lovely, aching book.”
Congratulations, Kelly! We look forward to reading.
