Publisher's Synopsis
Old Soul, Wilder Spirit: Poems by locally award-winning poet and illustrator Gwynn Worbington, features over forty poems elegantly arranged in four chapters of 'Constellation, ' 'Farmhouse, ' 'Silver, ' and 'Muse.' Vibrant, tactile descriptions and romantic, agrarian imagery interweave with refreshing wit as the poet offers thoughtful reflections on self, home, dreams and love. The poet's own black-and-white illustrations complement the collection's challenging portrayal of coming-of-age and feminine experience. Intellectually sophisticated, charmingly innocent, beautifully classic, and colorfully bold, this debut collection is a work of art that poetry lovers of all ages will appreciate.
