These are love poems to language and the business of living, each inspired by the work of another writer. Poems that have resonated with Rowland are held up to the light, casting new and beautiful reflections of the here and now. Small pleasures are illuminated in \"savored, sugared moments\" that we are urged not to overlook or take for granted. This is a book of poems that echo, that tell us again and again to keep our eyes open, to dance in the rain, to \"graft each other's wounds,\" to never once stop listening - an uplifting delight of a read.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-\u003cb\u003e\u003cb\u003eJen Feroze\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, author, \u003ci\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Dress With Deep Pockets\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis collection of poems feels like a potluck cooked for humanity. \u003ci\u003e\u003ci\u003eIn Search of Lost Birds\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e is a literary dinner party for readers who crave warmth and tenderness.
