Bloom on a Split Board

Poetry April 2010 ISBN 978-0-9844118-8-7 Softcover, 5½" x 8½"

"'Come along, come along,' Nana Lampton sings in these lovely nature poems. Here she gives us ice, the edge of the sea, the half moon, and the dawn. We consort with dogs, salmon, the ravens, the owl, the warbler, deer, thoroughbreds and Audubon's pet turkey. We breathe the fragrance and sight of Daphne, roses, white catalpa and hydrangeas, wild iris. The spirit hovers and explores, unbounded." - Sena Jeter Naslund, Author of Ahab's Wife and Adam & Eve
