What other poets are saying...

 

"Some poems shine as vivid reminders - we are human, we belong to one another, like it or not, we will never be alone. 

 

Sue Sutherland-Hanson extends her tender, lyrical care to those she does not know personally as well as those she does - her garden of considerations feeds us all. This book is a blessing.       Naomi Shihab Nye

An Invitation to Openness: Poems for Individuals and Communities Seeking the Sa
by Sue Sutherland-Hanson and Kimberly Beyer Nelson

​

What others are saying...

​

" am delighted by the wise beauty of this book of poetry. Both authors bring a distinctive voice, yet there is a music, a dance reading them in tandem. It reminds me of another compelling book, Between Two Souls, a book of poems that work as a dialogue between an 18th C Zen monk and a 21st C Christian nun. An Invitation to Openness is evocative of such deep conversation, where you hear the other put into words what you felt deeply. This morning, I read one of the author's poems, "Immanent." She speaks of the poet's task and profound calling: "Renewed faith in details fills me with determination to praise particulars..." I am trying not to read the book too quickly...one bite is filling! I want the joy to last."
