More Than Knowing

As sound is the musician's instrument, words are the poet's instrument. Still, there are moments so poignant or beautiful that words seem inadequate. In those moments, it is important to embrace the sanctity of experience, when life is more than knowing. Life is feeling fully, embracing the whole of the experience, and growing wiser by being present to the moment. This collection of poems is the poet's attempt at being present to experiences that have moved her beyond words.
