Sunrise Ruby: poems of reality and hope

By Karen Warinsky

Karen's second book -

Sunrise Ruby is an unwavering window into a wise mother's

heart, a fierce interrogation of humanity's toxic exploits, and poetic reprieve in the resonating movement of spirit and hope within the pages. "World! O! I want to love you as the ice caps melt, economies crash and fire devours forests." With "wind-blown notes coming through like 5-part harmony," Warinsky sharply focuses on internal life, racial injustice, politics, and environmental strife, writing to "alchemize the lead of conflict into golden understanding;" her earthly body caught "running the constant triathlon of shopping, cleaning, bills," while her soul flies boundless in "the counter-space, the place of subtle forces... where we can create and recreate infinitely." These poems question deeply, "going inward... seeking clarity, seeking truth... reach to the heavens, provide a focus for the mystery, and call to us that life will go on."
