Delving beneath the surface of things, Joyce Uhlir’s poems explore and shed light on a multi-dimensional world of nature where sight, sound, feelings, smell and taste mix — like paint on a pallet — to the delight of body and soul. Jasmine plays at the tip of my nose./ Cranberries splash round/ the playfulness of my tongue,” she writes. The light in her poems can also thread its way into “the black fabric of night” as “Distant stones in a dark universe/ blink…” and as stars arrive “in the yawn of evening.” Sensuous and spiritual at the same time, this light often seems like x-ray vision, making the opaque transparent and beautiful. Fortunately for us, she has shared her word paintings here, poems filled with “mysterious light.” —Paul Fisher, Author of Rumors of Shore
