Keeping Watch on Soap Creek (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798891326019)

Poet Shannon Vesely is keeping watch.

As a milkweed pod bursts with filaments, a muskrat carves a solitary path across a pond, and a woman and her lover meet in a field of Sandhill cranes at dusk-she is there.

In this collection of poems, Vesely shares the legacy, land, and people who have shaped her life. From the sweeping prairies of Nebraska to the wooded hills of her Iowa home, she invites readers into her world, encouraging them to see with fresh eyes. As keeper of the watch, she focuses on the ordinary things and experiences that matter deeply.

Keeping Watch on Soap Creek by Shannon Vesely celebrates the small moments that offer big rewards.
