Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pasadena Rose Poets are "unobtrusive pause creators." We use our words to allow humanity to pause and breathe deeply. Poetry leaves its mark--not always visible--but imprinted on us and our audience in ways that we may never know. We are a chorus of voices stretched across cultures. Poetry gifts us with a third eye and ear that slows us down to look and see, to hear murmurs and whispers that get under our skin and live in our heads until we let the words land on the page. We fly, soar as time, space and freedom joins us. An NEA, National Endowment for the Arts, grant to the City of Pasadena Cultural Affairs Division created the winds of change that established The Pasadena Rose Poets in 2016. Nine published poets were chosen to initiate a lunchtime poetry reading program at the Pasadena Senior Center in 2016 and in the Pasadena Council Chambers in 2018. We are also know as "Citizen Poets," who initiated and continued to read at City Council meetings since 2017. As Mayor Terry Tornek remarked at one of the Council meetings, I believe that because of the poetry readings, the meetings are more civil.

Download or read book California And New Mexico written by Webster Young and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-04-07 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Webster Young's colorful lyric poetry is matched with John Axline's black and white nature photography in this descendant of the photo and poetry classic Not Man Apart (Robinson Jeffers and Ansel Adams). It reflects Webster Young's love of California and its unities of mountain ranges, the Pacific Coast, its chain of missions, its magnificent aqueduct and agriculture, and its system of universities from North to South. One of the longer poems is entitled "The Career of Ansel Adams." The New Mexico section matches stunning photos of Santa Fe, the desert, and the Sangre de Cristo mountains with intense poems reflecting the poet's ten years living in Cerillos, New Mexico. Young's poetry is lyrical, using lines of various meters and all types of rhyme in a non-conventional scheme. Axline's photos are in the classical tradition of Ansel Adams, yet also have a slightly new slant, within a solid photographic composition, to capture characteristic landscape details and points.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our first publication, Pasadena Rose Poets Poetry Collection 2019 Reflection. Resistance. Reckoning. Resurrection. was published in September prior to COVID-19 initial invasion. To celebrate our 6th Anniversary, July 2022, we decided to launch our second book, Pasadena Rose Poets Poetry Collection 2022 Not So Perfect Storm. Our journey was shaped by unchartered terrain which caused us to keep adjusting and reinventing, laced with a litany of surprising challenges, chaos, and change. Not only in our communities, but all over the world. Illness and death snatched family and friends, economic hardships hunkered down; ravaging wildfires multiplied; January 6th riot erupted; murder of George Floyd and rare guilty verdict, protests mushroomed; appointment of Justice Ketanji Brown to the US Supreme Court joyful; and the continuing war of genocide in Ukraine. We continued to read, write, publish, create, and stay connected with each other and our communities while exploring and observing new experiences within reach woven with threads of randomness. A bird fly so close you feel the warm air from wings enter your ear; walking stop, look down, a shiny dime glistens at your feet, and encounter a bear in your dreams as hint of danger dissolves when you say No! No! the bear walks away. Not So Perfect Storm. Our saving grace is the urge and need to write, to document what we see, and feel since our work mirrors life real or imagined. The first gift of the day is the fact that we wake up.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems: And Poems of California and the West The Sign of the Ultimate I stood on an island sea beach, No other soul was there Save the soul of the island, sleeping, And the soul of God in the air. The beach was long and lonely And my soul was lonely too: No being gave me greeting, But above the sea-birds flew. Full well I knew the sea of Life, Full long I'd searched its deeps, But now, behold, oncoming, A wave that landward sweeps. I saw with eyes far seeing, And knew with thought profound: I heard the rush of Being In that tumultuous sound. Power spoke with accent certain, Force lived in that wild roar, An aeon raised its curtain - A billow crashed ashore. The Soul's Defiance Take if Thou wilt my every hope away! Crush down the longings of my youth, Make dark the glorious spring-like day, Forbid the mind that seeketh Truth. Strong One, whoever Thou mayst be!

Download or read book California Sorrow written by Mary Kinzie and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2013-10-09 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this exceptional new collection, acclaimed poet Mary Kinzie opens her attention to the landscapes of the earth. Her poems of richly varied line lengths develop phrases at the syncopated pace of the observing mind: “Slag and synthesis and traveling fire / so many ways the groundwaves of distortion / pulse / through bedrock traffic and the carbon chain” she writes in the opening poem, “The Water-brooks.” Here, and throughout, her reflection on the natural world embraces the damages of time to which we can bear only partial witness but to which the human memory is bound. In the collection’s title poem, Kinzie goes on to explore her own romantic griefs alongside the adventures of T. S. Eliot, “inadvertently working on a suntan” as he tours the desert in the roadster of his American girlfriend, whose heart he will break. Kinzie’s conviction that sorrow, too, is a form of passion allows her to lift poems from shattered thoughts and long-ago losses, at times blending prose and verse in a combustible mixture. Determined not to prettify but still expressing fresh wonder at the beauty we stumble across in spite of our shortcomings, Kinzie delivers her bravest work yet in these new poems. O God invisible as air My tears have been my meat sweet because no noxious thing runs with themonly fragrant naïveté of the reflective midday when bank herb and wood flower and water from the pool can best be gathered also the knowledge that these gifts are tenuous and that the mouth and the harp might soon be strange to play

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These stories and poems are no fairy tale but real ones, singing songs of “the sleeping promise” of the West, its “blinding sunsets” and “pricked finger,” its “strange-looking dwarfs” and “puckered kiss.” The sun is the dominant image throughout, but its rays illuminate, with dense anger or delightful humor, Death Valley and Hearst Castle, transients and friends, the rich and the cops, all searching for the promise. From the opening prose, we learn that this quest is personal, including a nasty divorce and perplexed children. But always the sun and the sea beckon us. Yet death looms, though, like the elusiveness of the West itself, it is not a bad thing. “Our bones decay smiling / atoms wave where we’ve been”; “Our heat waves love lingering under the sky.” For finally, “This is the West. / The land stops here. / The urge curls in the sand and laughs here.”

When the rosy morning broke O'er the sleeping earth, From the temple of the soul Poesy leaped forth; Poesy the heavenly maid Born of light and love; Making earth her dwelling place, Heavenly good to prove. Thus she wanders up and down Mountains, and o'er moor; Where the gentle breezes blows: Where the tempests roar; In lowly cot, in regal hall, O'er lightsome heart, and sad, She stretches forth her magic wand, And lo, that heart is glad.
