I quite liked the (title) heart cycle, the deer, the fish, the mule, and a few scattered others - those with quietude or seeking now-ness, those meeting grief head-on. Others read more like standard love poems. Of course we can never like all of a poet's work just the same, and those will be someone else's favorites. ( ) I discovered this poet in college during a Contemporary Poetry course, and immediately fell in love with the way she talked about love, loss, and the pain of trying to move slowing through grief. I was no stranger to grief myself; my best friend from high school had just passed away and so had my beloved grandmother, both from cancer. I found special comfort in the lines of "Da Capo" as the poet blended simple acts like cooking as ways to "begin again the story of your life" I love this book and am currently re-reading my autographed copy. These poems are gorgeous--I love Hirshfield's imaginings of heart. My favorite poem, which I have memorized and am currently reciting to myself, is Da Capo. "Begin again the story of your life." I need to hear these words over and over. Their cadence is comforting and strong. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
