Selected from just over 100 pieces - many final drafts and some in various stages of development, written between the early 196os and late ‘8os - these 50 poems and 10 haiku represent each of the major themes of her poetry: portraits; nature; theological questions; her interior landscape; and relationships — “friendship, love, and our interdependence in our struggle to be human,” as she put it.
