The Thin Place is the Porch: Poems by Tim Bryant
THE THIN PLACE is the Porch is a true porch-light book-made of small, true moments that turn strange with meaning when you stare at them long enough. These poems move like handwritten notes in the margin of a life: love and loss, ordinary mornings, old griefs that won't lay down, and the sudden hush where something holy might be trying to speak.
Tim Bryant writes with a storyteller's eye and a musician's ear-plainspoken when it needs to be, lyrical when the world insists. This collection doesn't perform certainty. It keeps watch. It listens. It asks the big questions without abandoning the small, lived details that make those questions worth asking.
Inside, you'll find:
poems that feel like prayers, arguments, and receipts from the week
the sacred arriving through kitchens, porches, hospital rooms, memory
work that's tender but unsentimental, grounded but luminous
a voice that invites you to slow down, breathe, and look again
If you've ever wanted faith without pretense, beauty without denial, and poems that meet you where you actually live-these pages are for you.
THE THIN PLACE is the Porch is for anyone still learning how to keep looking, keep listening, keep loving anyway.
Tim Bryant is the author of Bywater, Upriver, and the Dutch Curridge Mystery series, and the founder of Live Your Life, Write.
