I’m honored to have a poem about grieving my mother, “Embalming,” included in Maine Public Radio’s Poems From Here series. My poem was selected and read by Maine Poet Laureate Julia Bouwsma. Poems From Here is presented in collaboration with Maine Writers & Publishers Alliance. Thanks to everyone who made this recording possible, and to MORIA Literary Magazine for first publishing the poem.
