Towards Hope

Description

Eleanor Nesbitt’s poems invite you, often whimsically, to fi nd po-

etry in every situation—yes, literally. Plants, animals, the past and

the future, illness and bereavement, global issues, as well as the

transformative power of places, have all precipitated her poems.

So too have the experience of being a Quaker and the mystery

of mediating poems—some serious, some less so.
