Last year I wrote, City Turned to Inland Lake in honor of the victims of Hurricane Harvey. To my surprise, PBS NewsHour Online liked the poem so much they featured it, complete with an interview of me (and me reading the poem). I am grateful for the opportunity. Please read their article here: In the wake of Hurricane Michael, this poet recognizes the way disaster can change you.
The World on Pause
Maybe we all just need to take a pause
breathe only our own air for a change
tend to our own gardens
