Poetry. These poems reflect the inner life of the poet through a strong connection to nature, to shape, and to color. When you read these poems, many of which are poems of love and beauty, you are taking a journey into the "every day" mind and heart of an artist. They are often mysterious, often passionate, always provocative.

"As quiet as a moment just before sleep, Sarah Plimpton's poems are like preludes to dreams. The everyday happens daily, but it is also rare and precious in Ms. Plimpton's transparent telling."—John Ashbery
