Deep Calls to Deep

The poems in Audrey Streetman’s Deep Calls to Deep invite, sometimes challenge, readers to enjoy with the poet a life observant of the great and the small – the pleasures, joys, and griefs of a life deeply felt and fondly remembered and lived. The in the conclusion to Falling, the poet prays, Save me from the page, while readers may add, but save these pages for us. The beauty of Streetman’s work is often delicate, filigreed, but the depth and sensibility and the talent that make these poems possible can be described as strong and tensile. Read Deep Calls to Deep to be rewarded with much to treasure.
