Description
xIf you're looking for that special, joyful place on earth to heal your soul or connect your spirit to God, please read Terry Loncaric's Poems from a Restless Traveler. Terry's kaleidoscope of travel poems takes you far beyond a typical travelogue by capturing the spiritual essence of every city, landscape, and roadhouse she encounters. Terry's vibrant imagery paints an alluring picture of every haven from the Taos Trail to the Hot Springs of Banff and reveals their powerful mysteries. Mary Paleologos
Writer and Editor In her Poems from a Restless Traveler, poet Terry Loncaric takes us along for the ride as she travels around the U.S., Canada, and the Caribbean, sharing with them the joys of her experiences. The poet begins with her New Orleans Quintet, clearly her favorite place to visit. Then she takes us on a trip around the U.S., Canada, and the Caribbean, including a visit home to Chicago and nearby Washington Island in Wisconsin. In each visit, the reader learns something about the people who live there and the uniqueness of each spot. When she's done taking us on her poetic itinerary, Terry brings us back to these locations by sharing with us the regional cuisines that she loves, the animals that are endemic to these places, and the music that draws her back. In addition, she has her own unique commentary, such as in A Conversation with the Trees. "I wonder, why do trees embrace growing old, but we humans run away from the sweet wisdom of advanced years?" Thoughtful and delightful! Judith MK Kaufman
Editor, East on Central About the Author Terry Loncaric, who lives in Hampshire, Ill., has distinguished herself in many creative fields -- as a newspaper reporter, an award-winning entertainment writer, a newspaper editor, and a high school educator and college lecturer. As an educator, she helped students at Hoffman Estates High School in the Chicago Suburbs overcome learning disabilities and achieve milestones in their writing skills. She launched Poetry Power, a unique live poetry event that showcased student and teacher poets. She lectured on feature writing at Roosevelt University and Columbia College in Chicago, often drawing upon her experiences in newsrooms, to teach students the fundamentals of clear, concise writing. Loncaric is the author of a chapbook, Crashing in Velvet for Finishing Line Press, and Poetry in an Age of Panic, a full-length collection of poetry for Kelsay Books. Her current book, Poems from a Restless Traveler, features memorable travel narratives presented as engaging poems. Loncaric's careers in writing, editing, and education inspire and infuse the richness and depth in her poetry, which one critic described as "poignant reflections of life as experienced by a journalist, a poet, a seeker of meaning in the everyday." Loncaric's poems, published in magazines, books, anthologies, and newspapers, have been lauded for their humanity, her narrative flair, and her lyrical use of language. The author believes, in these troubled times, it is essential to share poetry. She has a degree in journalism from Indiana University.
