The Edge of Things

Anne Powell’s poems reach from the soul-baring Waikanae River all the way across the earth to cascades of stars over cold desert sand. At times focusing on the wealth of wisdom nature imparts upon patient observation, at others on the daily realities of those people who live beyond our familiar trajectories, Anne Powell stays grounded in her ability to see the sacred in a world of both stillness and disturbance.

The Edge Of Things captures these poetic explorations with a profound sensitivity, offering insight into the connective threads that weave through diverse landscapes and lives.
