Grounded in nature and the earth, but often soaring to high altitudes (Axinn is a veteran pilot) this new book of poems catches moods, seasons, weather; poses questions large and small about life, the earth, the passage of time and the seasons, about geography and geometry. In this his sixth volume of poems, he hones his language more cleanly and elegantly than ever before.
