"Foaling Season" was one of the best poem I've ever read.

slow-paced

A shame that this didn't work for me. My first Ada Limon. Repetitive.

emotional reflective slow-paced

 I have always been too sensitive, a weeper
from a long line of weepers.


As another weeper, this collection deeply resonated with me, to the point where reviewing it is difficult to do without feeling too vulnerable and exposed. It felt quiet and tender and melancholy and reflective and intimate. I feel like my life is at a point of change and growth and uncertainty about both of those things and this collection spoke to those feelings.
