Klappentext

Small Exchanges is a collection of poems dealing with everyday encounters and sights. These sights and encounters might be a garden, an albatross, a caregiver or something I've read, even an obituary. Encounters lead to surprising questions and insights and when things are said well, questions and the inquiry are more important than answers for the lives we live.
