Cherish the Clear Sky
A poetic celebration of the natural world and the intricacies of life
The poems in Cherish the Clear Sky follow Annette’s life from her 1950s childhood in a military family to her falling in love with the redwood forest of Northern California. She and her husband Greg settled into an old dairy farm where they restored a dilapidated barn and turned it into a meditation hall. Many poems spring from the author’s devotion to the natural world, others from her relationships with family and friends. The poems range from the humorous to the sacred, and are written in a variety of styles including free verse, sonnets, ballads, haiku and haibun. They touch on the joys, sorrows, and complexities of life in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
