At the heart of these poems are questions that profoundly affect this poet. She welcomes the, often difficult, conversation. “I write wringing / gist from jettison... I write ‘til the sky is lit, / advancing over the stone walls, singing.” Cole’s heartfelt amazement with whatever she is observing — a heron, a pod of beached whales, a man plowing his field — is her recognition of the beauty, cruelty, mortality, joy and injustice that is part of being of this world.  These encounters with nature and its enigmas help the poet embrace her fears, sorrows and longings and find her place in a larger world. This book sings out with frankness, wisdom and beauty. As Shakespeare so aptly wrote: “the earth has music for those who listen.”
