The poems in Morning Glories possess a gracefulness, like the flower itself, taking on their own life Seeds, Planters, Growing, Blossoms. For Brooke Bognanni, the process of writing becomes spiritual, a meditation for which the purpose varies; often it is about the natural cycle of the things of this earth, and about saying good-bye. The book, in turn, becomes a marker of epiphanal self-discovery.
