Sweet Herbaceous Miracle: Poems

By Berwyn Moore

Sweet Herbaceous Miracle won the John Ciardi Prize for Poetry, selected by the renowned poet and editor Enid Shomer. Shomer writes in her foreword to the book, "Moore is an accomplished poet with striking verbal facility whose poems offer the usual pleasures of language that poetry provides. But how she perceives the world, her sensibility, is another attraction for her readers... On a basic level, she demonstrates a way to be in the world." Poet Naomi Shihab Nye calls the book "absolutely gorgeous writing," and poet Alan Michael Parker writes, "Elizabethan elegance, light, and fire-crack pervade this terrific collection."
