Under the Broom Tree by Natalie Homer
Poems that explore the wilderness in order to find rest and divine providence.
"'Stay close I urge the young rabbit / as he nears the road' Natalie Homer keeps a close watch on the world in this stunning book of poems, moved by a potent mix of curiosity, vigilance, and love. Nothing seems to escape her notice. She looks up and sees a 'stray clump' of balloons drifting through the sky. She looks down and sees the 'creeping gray lives flourishing in corners.' She looks under cars and in storage closets. No detail is too small. While the polar bear at the zoo may be 'on vacation, ' even the water in its tank 'can be a spectacle, too.' At once wry, candid, and rich with description, Under the Broom Tree is a wonderful book." --Geoffrey Hilsabeck, author of Riddles, Etc.
Natalie Homer's poetry has been published in The Boiler, Cincinnati Review, Carolina Quarterly, Berkeley Poetry Review, Meridian, Barnstorm, The Pinch, and elsewhere. Originally from Idaho, she now lives in Waynesburg, Pennsylvania, where she is a parish administrator of an Episcopal church.
