Miracle of the Wine

These are patient poems, infused with a present, sustained sensibility, a voice of witness. In the natural world where many poems begin, or slipping quietly into a painting, Palka finds surprise in the quotidian...and significance in the rhythms of family and work. Through a lens of mature faith, these poems open outward, charged and thoughtful, engaged with the world. Juditha Dowd poet, essayist, fiction writer
