Redbud Winter

By John Wesley Burton

"Redbud Winter" by John Wesley Burton
Poems from the Heart of Appalachia

In Redbud Winter, John Wesley Burton shares a warm and soulful collection of poetry rooted in the rhythms of Appalachian life. With a voice steeped in memory, faith, and storytelling, Burton reflects on the good ol' days-those fleeting moments of joy, struggle, and grace that shape a life well-lived.

These poems carry readers through country roads and church pews, through springtime redbuds and mountain winters, guided by familiar faces like his doodle, Fire Cracker Dan. Burton's words stir up the scent of woodsmoke and biscuits, the sound of gospel songs, and the feel of a handshake that means something.

Part memoir, part tribute, and part homespun wisdom, Redbud Winter is a poetic portrait of small towns, big faith, and the ties that bind. It's a collection for anyone who's ever missed home, held onto hope, or found God in the quiet.
