“Early in the morning, late at night, in quiet times and busy—there is a poem for the moment. Betsy Small ... has combined her skills and talents to bring together an array of works from across the globe and across time. Her wellaccomplished goal, she tells us in the introduction, is to offer the works of poets who share their ‘experiences of living joyfully in the moment ...’

The selection of authors speaks to Small’s arduous efforts to reflect the world: generally known names like Mary Oliver, Sara Teasdale, May Sarton, and e.e. cummings join the less familiar Dogen Zenji, Uvanuk, and Zagajewski. Despite the variety, each selection speaks to a moment.”
