This anthology features poems by Mark Doty, Ross Gay, Donald Hall, Marie Howe, Naomi Shihab Nye and many others. These poets, from all walks of life, and from all over America, prove to us the possibility of creating in our lives what Dr. Martin Luther King called the "beloved community," a place where we see each other as the neighbors we already are. Healing the Divide urges us, at this fraught political time, to move past the negativity that often fills the airwaves, and to embrace the ordinary moments of kindness and connection that fill our days--Back cover.

It didn’t hurt that the work is by some of my favorite people, including Barbara Crooker, Donald Hall, Jane Kenyon, Dorianne Laux (whose “Mother’s Day” left such an impression on me), W.S. Merwin (how I want to emulate his gift), and Connie Wanek (if you haven’t read her Consider the Lilies: Mrs. God Poems, do so!).
I also discovered new poets (who are not new, but new to me):
Mary Elder Jacobsen. You can’t go wrong with a turtle poem! I, too, am “mesmerized by a moving shell.”
Alison Luterman. Her “I Confess” made me smile after a stressful day.
Danusha Laméris. “Small Kindnesses” was perhaps my favorite of the collection.
So many moments of joy and simple pleasures fill these pages. I’ll be re-reading it often. ( )
