Unbroken Circle, Unending Thread

By James K Zimmerman

The poems in Unbroken Circle, Unending Thread hew to Mary Oliver's admonition: "Pay attention. Be astonished. Tell about it." The focus is on the changing seasons and the passage of time-beginning in winter and returning there in an epilogue-with a subtext of attunement to both the subtle joys of experiencing the evolving and revolving of the year and to the sense of loss inherent in the inevitability of impermanence. Embedded in the subconscious of these poems is the centrality of climate change and its disorienting and deleterious effects on all inhabitants-human and otherwise-of planet earth.
