‘the gods of wild things'

by Deborah Gordon Cooper

“The poems of Deborah Gordon Cooper redeem the world, time and again, with the loving attention she bestows on often unseen…and unsung…natural and human detail.   Utilizing “every scrap of light” she can find, she has crafted a collection of lyric poetry so beautiful, it glows.”

Jill Breckenridge, author of ‘Civil Blood'

“In ‘the gods of wild things' Cooper explores the divine in everyday life.   She believes that most poetry is spiritual poetry.   “I think of spirituality as having to do with a sense of belonging to something larger than self…a sense of how connected we are to one another, to those who have died, and to all of creation.   So often, our minds are on “fast forward.”   When we are caught up in a creative process, writing a poem or drawing a picture, we move into a deeper place, a prayerful place where the heart can open up.”
