Defying Gravity - Rosemary Winslow

Rosemary Winslow's new poems search out our shared life wrestling with pain and suffering to clear a way to lift us up in our common ground. Wielding the resources of both formal and free verse, she affirms a natural growth of experience breaking through and upward: she writes, \Let it be, then.\ \We are born in pain, we go round and round, we bud, open, drop/ like mercies for each other.\
