Under a Gathering Sky

Journey into the lyrical world of Under a Gathering Sky, a compelling poetry collection that weaves together a narrative of exploration, introspection, and the timeless act of questing. In a masterful arrangement of five sections, these poems beckon readers to traverse a landscape marked by personal reckonings and the enduring legacies of literary greats. Opening with ＂Auguries,＂ this collection gracefully dances across facial and temporal boundaries, laying down the foundation of an odyssey that challenges and inspires. The second section presents a series of slant dialogues, evoking powerful conversations with iconic poets and writers such as William Blake and Emily Dickinson, revealing the universality of human experience across eras.
