Description
The intense poems of yearning in this poignant collection deal with many themes, but central to them all are concerns with the mysteries of absence and intimacy, proximity and distance. While the title Poems Before Easter may uplift and inspire, the period before Easter is treated as a time of suffering and loss leading to rebirth. These poems face that darkness while also preparing for renewal in the world.
