The Poetry of Grief, Gratitude, and Reverence by John Brehm

The Poetry of Grief, Gratitude, and Reverence by John Brehm

A new anthology from the editor of the bestselling Poetry of Impermanence, Mindfulness, and Joy.

Explorations on a journey through the darkest and brightest moments of our lives, the poems gathered here are explorations of loss, of thanksgiving, of transformation. Some show a path forward and others simply acknowledge and empathize with where we are, but all are celebrations of poetry's ability to express what seemed otherwise inexpressible, to touch deep inside our hearts--and also pull ourselves out of our selves and into greater connection with the world around us.

Includes poems by
Rainer Maria Rilke, Robert Frost, Elizabeth Bishop, Czeslaw Milosz, Seamus Heaney, Billy Collins, Joy Harjo, Danusha Lameris, Ada Limon, Kevin Young, Arthur Sze, Ellen Bass, Li-Young Lee, Natasha Trethewey, and many more.

The editor also includes an essay on appreciative attention and links to guided meditations for select poems, offering us a chance to have an even deeper experience of reflection.

Poetry, The Gettysburg Review, The Southern Review, Gulf Coast, Barrow Street, Prairie Schooner, the Missouri Review, and many other publications and anthologies have published John Brehm's poems. He is the author of Sea of Faith, which won the Brittingham Award in Poetry in 2004. He is also an associate editor for The Oxford Book of American Poetry. He spent many years in New York City and currently lives in Portland, Oregon.
