“Summer Snow” at Gyroscope Review

My poem “Summer Snow” is now up at Gyroscope Review. It’s about our local snowball stand in suburban Maryland, which was a major part of my childhood and a significant Maryland cultural signpost.

The poem was inspired by Tara A. Elliott’s “Snowball” which brought back a lot of memories of that time and place. Poetry is great for that, like a little time machine constructed out of language. You can go anywhere in a poem.

It wasn’t called SnOasis back then, but our snowball stand survives to this day. Drop by if you’re in the neighborhood.
