Written over one season in a Vermont cabin, these poems act as a reflecting pool, casting back mortality, consciousness, and time in new, crystal-clear light. The chatter of the chickadee, the smell of new-sawn pine, the fog on the pond—Padgett uses daily minutiae to consider what it means to exist in the world.
