Winner of the 2011 FutureCycle Poetry Book Prize. In MOSSLIGHT, Kimberley Pittman-Schulz invites readers on a walking meditation, a crooked path through loss and longing where solace shimmers in the shadows, rooted in the rhythms of the natural world. Each poem is a small epiphany offered by unlikely mentors?decaying redwood logs and indifferent ravens, ?the golden gel? of a banana slug and a blur of wet bees, tiny fish caught in a shoe, a dog?s black face leaning from a truck window, even ?eight rusty ants dragging a dead wasp through the grass? that challenge us with, ?Who are you, anyway?? Like a lost explorer?part-naturalist, part-Buddhist?the voice in this collection leads the reader deep into the present moment, ?stark and lush,? reminding us that while ?alone each foot burns/into cold layers? there is a larger interconnectedness, as ?even in wet snow falling,/the wren sings.?
