No Small Thing: Poems - Paperback

by Ellen Rowland (Author)

In her new collection of poems, Ellen Rowland summons us to presence, showing us the world through an unfiltered lens that asks us to consider the beauty and truth of the ordinary. "How large each moment becomes when we stop to feel its weight". Through descriptive, sensory language, we briefly become a savored sky, a migrating bird, a woken lover. Examining themes of nature, family, love and loss, this collection addresses the larger concerns of our times - solitude, otherness, and uncertainty - while elevating the grace of the often-forgotten gifts that surround us. Weaving gratitude with grief, the infinite with the invisible, joy with sorrow, Rowland's poems invite us into an intimate conversation about what it means to be human.
