As Heard on The Daily Gardener Podcast:
The Sanctuary of My Garden: Poems by Fotoula Reynolds
I love what CS Hughes wrote about Fotoula's book :
"They say that poetry is a garden, sometimes wild and unhewn, sometimes carefully tended. Fotoula Reynolds' poems ably demonstrate that - there is always a new and carefully tended bloom, and sometimes something unexpected, that you might think a weed, but I would say, a wildflower gone perhaps just a little astray."
Here's an excerpt from her signature poem: The Sanctuary of My Garden:
"In the evening of a
Mediterranean summer
Where the stars wink their
Little eyes and the moon
Graces us with her
Outstanding-ness
I have traveled the world
Fearlessly in my imagination
For a time
I am out of reach
But you can always find me
In the sanctuary of my garden."
Fotoula's book is available using the Amazon link in today's Show Notes. It's a paperback and would make a lovely Christmas present.
