Overhead from Longing

Longing describes it all: the yearning for a "cradle of molten moonlight" to underpin the vicissitudes of daily life as we seek to watch "silken embers of sun topaz the sky." In lyrical free verse and, at times, formal verse, Judith Alexander Brice depicts the treasured echoes of a life/our lives, even as they are interrupted by the vagaries of misfortune, illness and loss-and by the whims of our world.
