In a Quiet Moment

She spreads its light,showing herselfon a cloudless nightas a full moon self.Given her optimal fullness in the sky,my heart soars with romance,with my lover as my ally.So romantic is the moonon a dark night in this cocoon ...Mary Elizabeth Lee, known for her strong and consistent voice, shares her third collection of poems that experiment with new forms for the first time.In a compilation that varies between free verse, rhymed tercets, and prose, Lee explores a variety of relatable subjects that include the humorous banter between a husband and wife, the art of waiting for a much-anticipated visit, the wisdom that comes from measuring knowledge against experience, the peace that comes with the sounds of rain falling softly on a tin roof, the beauty surrounding the laws of nature, the acts of an aggressive sparrow determined to do whats right for its family and country, and the uncertainty that accompanies a fierce windstorm.In a Quiet Moment shares lyrical verse from a seasoned poet that leads others on a poignant journey through life, nature, and love.
