About the chapbook
Growing Tree is not a testimony of arrival. It is the swaying, the aching, the reaching upward in seasons when the sky seemed sealed — the rings of a tree still becoming.
Six sections. Eighteen poems. Quiet interludes between. To be read slowly, with the spaces left to breathe.

What lives in these pages
“Because it is in dreams that the truth first learns how to breathe.”
The author
— a Transcendentalist
A poet whose work listens for the breath beneath the bark — the quiet conversation between soil and sky, between faith and longing, between who one is and who one is still becoming.
Meet the poet →Letters carried by wind
A quiet letter, sent only when the soil has something new to offer.
