Love shared, love in secret, celebrated, exploded. Unrequited longing and love that's mellowed through the years. Love at long distance, across continents, so close there's no space to breathe, or never quite close enough. Love lost and love found. Love from the inside out and love from the outside in. Love Notes has it all: a collection of poetry as diverse as the experience of falling in love itself. A shared candied apple, a farewell at Paddington Station, a name scribbled in a notebook, a face that leaves us breathless, a single word that changes our life forever. Love Notes is a rich tapestry of verse woven from fragments of life and those moments that make falling in love so irresistible. And so inevitable. Love is unique, love is universal. Love is everywhere.

"This volume of stories celebrates the incredible and indelible ways in which birds touch us, intrinsically as well as extrinsically. I hope it will encourage a greater awareness of and appreciation for these remarkable beings and a deep and abiding respect for and nurturing of their presence amongst us." -Ira Rubinoff, PhD, Director Emeritus and Senior Staff Scientist Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute Welcome to the amazing world of birds, birders and bird watching. Birds have what we don't-the enchantment of wings! They lift and break free from the bounds of gravity, soar over lakes, mountains, treetops-a veritable moving feast of fascinating, unpredictable, and breathtaking movement that captures and defies our ability to control it. And we love them, because they represent the untamed wild in ourselves. The writings in this book evoke our deepest connections with birds and allow us to revel in the sense of mystery, magic, and devotion that we all feel for our feathered friends. Open to any page, start reading, and become one of the millions who know that the only piece of equipment you really need to begin birding is a book. Let your journey begin with this one.
"Over the years, at least since the '90s, the poet Mark DeCarteret has been called on to review or introduce poets involved in the powerful Seacoast poetry community in New England. His introductions have always been deeply considered appreciations of the poets and their crafts. No 'brief bios' these. It is really valuable to have these brief essays collected under one cover together with author-selected examples of their work. The vibration between Mark's intros and the authors' work are irresistibly stimulating, compelling reading. But the net effect, to me, is a highly unconventional memoir in which the subject reveals himself not through classic, selective braggadocio (the reason most memoirs repulse me) but by presenting sharp portraits of a wide array of committed contemporary poets who have played roles, personal and poetic, in his life over the last 35 or so years"--John Michael Albert (Amazon review).

Poetry. ORDINARY LIES is the first collection of fine poems by Robert J. Duffy, a poet-plumber from New Hampshire. "Robert J. Duffy must have listened, from a very early age, to readings from Homer, the Psalms of David, the Song of Songs, Spenser, Milton, Shakespeare. He is imprinted with our great language's flights and furies and it pours forth from him like a force of nature. Like John Donne, he asks his own questions, not used ones, and makes up and tries out his own answers, too"--Jean Pedrick.
