Diary of the Soft World

By Carol L. Hatfield

When you see through someone else’s eyes, doors and windows fly open. The view can be refreshing and enlightening, and you may come to know yourself on a different level. When poetry is very personal, it can offer such a vista.

Diary of the Soft World, by poet Carol L. Hatfield, offers a series of deeply personal verses spanning many years and several genres. Some of the poems are written with children in mind while remaining accessible to all ages. Others are an expression of what emerges from heritage and DNA. Ancestry speaks loudly, as do ancestors, and when their voices reach a certain decibel level, the poet has no choice but to express them. Many of these poems are words from Earth, and Hatfield feels honored to have been able to interpret them. Taken as a whole, this collection of poetry invites you to seek something new within yourself.

Twilight -
listen as the
birds begin auditions
and watch as each star radiates
