Read the Chapbook

Summer has returned to me, and so I have returned to Summer is a living, breathing collection of poetry that explores the heavy heat, sharp nostalgia, and bittersweet growth of life. Named for the way we find ourselves revisiting the seasons, and the versions of ourselves we thought we left behind, these poems serve as a gallery of shifting perspectives. From the quiet dynamics of the kitchen table to the invisible thresholds between childhood and the rest of our lives, this collection captures the moments where the scales finally tip. Because this is an active chapbook, the pages will shift, grow, and settle just like the season itself. Pull up a chair, stay a while, and watch the layers unfold.
