The pastoral poems of Shared Spaces explore people, location, events, critters, and time, through which run a common connection reflecting both community and conflict, and the consciousness of specific life cycles at various points. Technically the poems mix traditional free verse with Japanese haibun, melding together both form and the overall awareness and unity of place.
