reflection: spare crop / fleet mind
Thank you so much for all the wonderful poetry!
I think this is beautiful, Octavio. You and your daughter are so lucky to have each other!
Thank you, Adina. In light of your own heartbreaking poem, I’m humbled that you responded so well to my work. I’ve been so moved by your poems and the poems of your mom, whose voice is richer and deeper with the passage of time. It’s an honor to be listed with all these remarkable poets that Bonnie has drawn together for this event.
