Evanescence of Spring

Bag om Evanescence of Spring

Irritate an oyster and you get a pearl. Irritate a poet-and there have been a lot of irritations-and you get a poem-sometimes, a pearl. And I'm here to say I really like Nancy Dillingham's new string of pearls-pearls scattered on a mirror, beauty and pain reflected, magnified; alternately light and dark, intensified.Reading Dillingham's poems, I felt like I was in a house of mirrors, one poem reflecting another-a Proustian moment.-Parks Lanier, Appalachian Georgics and Collected PoemsEvanescence of Spring is an enjoyable and entertaining read. The poems are topical and passionate, filled with sharp energy. I especially like "In Search of Lost Time," a poignant poem that triggers the imagination and lingers in the mind. It's a beauty. Dillingham's energy is ever-present in this collection-one that will touch readers on many different levels.-Julia Nunnally Duncan, author of A Neighborhood ChangesI especially like the wry humor, which keeps the spring coming.-Shelby Stephenson, North Carolina Poet Laureate, 2015-2018
