Rainwater Hair

By Steve Brammell

In Rainwater Hair Brammell expresses his thoughts and feelings of the past and the present by use of his personal experiences, nature, history, ancient man, and from his imagination. As he presents each poem, one can think, feel, and see his reality in vivid imagery and in exacting detail. His poems will inspire you to reminisce.-Thomas Christensen is the author of two poetry books: Isomorphic Art of a Child and A Poetry Book of Wandering and Wonder


In his poems, as in his short stories, Steve Brammell celebrates the magic and meaning of the everyday. Through his eyes, we see that miracles and holiness dwell in our ordinary encounters with people, places, nature. Reminiscent of Jesse Stuart and Wendell Berry, Rainwater Hair will both haunt and bless.-Charles Disque, Indianapolis attorney
Rainwater Hair is an amazing collection of deep feelings and insights. Every poem evokes images and emotions that make the reader feel like it was written from his own experiences. They encourage the reader to appreciate life and the people in our lives as precious.-Elaine Moon, Critical care nurse and lifelong lover of the written word


These are poems you will want to read and reread. Steve Brammell's extraordinary gift celebrates the simple and the pure. Soak in the wisdom of verses in 'Ode to Sand', 'Sunny Morning After the Big Blizzard' as well as the title poem 'Rainwater Hair.' Look for endings that catch and stay with you. This is what it means to lead an examined life.-John Burrell
