Retreat

Exploring themes of love, loss, and self-discovery, the poems reflect on a painful divorce and the enduring nature of love over decades. Set against the backdrop of a writers' residency in NE Wyoming, they draw from years of journal entries and navigate the complexities of faith, doubt, and hope. As the poet traverses the Big Horn foothills, the collection reveals an internal quest for reconciliation between past and present selves, culminating in a narrative rich with friendship, hope, and appreciation for nature.
