Gorgeous, gorgeous poems filled with color, earth, flowers and connections. And one of the most beautiful covers ever!

I usually don’t read poetry. I like the symbolism in this book. The culture and appreciation for it is wonderful. The way they describe books as sacred made me happy. It was lovey to ready things be described so thoughtfully with elegance and importance.

Beautiful poems that use "The Book of Kells" as inspiration. There is something so right about her poems, so rich in language, in feeling, in mood. I enjoyed the trip back in time to Ireland with her.
