A Possible Landscape by Maureen Harris
Maureen Harris's first volume of poetry evokes "a possible landscape," where the stories that subtly shape us blend with the moments that we are.
Here is an Eden where Eve longs for the serpent's "green quiver," his "sibilant caress," where a snake tires of his lover "wearing/the same skin day-out, day-in." The poems in the first section of this book are sharp new takes on old stories, at once angry, witty and thoughtful. With grace, compassion and sparkle, the rest of the book explores the self in the world of the late twentieth century, the seeming contradictions of the third world, and the ordinary magic of an evening spent with friends.
Harris, Maureen: - IT ALL STARTED WITH A MUSTANG NAMED MOONLIGHT Ever since childhood I have been fascinated with expression through various methods of creative arts. From my early days of working on the school newspaper, to hanging out at my step-dad's local radio station; to working on the TV show Petrocelli, to writing and producing a 10 year, 16 page monthly newsletter for racing legend Jeff Gordon my canvas is painted through creative arts. I have always been a dreamer and loved playing outdoors with my toy horses, taking us through the Land of Imagination. Being the youngest of 6 kids, I never wanted to grow up. I spent a lot of time by myself as a child and my Land of Imagination was my go to place. There was so much magic there. You could walk with Unicorns and fairies flew around you. I was amazed at the wonderful things I could create and see in that land. I have always loved horses and the vision of Moonlight and Molly(R) was inspired shortly after I adopted a wild Mustang and named her Moonlight. She became my best friend, we connected at a spiritual level and I knew she came to me from the Land of Imagination. My mom was an artist and always encouraged me to chase my dreams. My dream is to inspire kids of all ages to never forget their childlike spirit. Imagine, Dream, Believe MAUREEN HARRIS, AUTHOR/ILLUSTRATOR
