A poet must achieve a balance between solitude and solidarity, between feeling and action, between intimacy of mankind and the revelation of nature.

I am committed to the power of poetry to transform the lives of children and adults. Poetry has the uncanny ability to tap into and uncover truths about oneself and ones’s culture. It also has the gift through metaphor and image to see the interconnectedness of all things.
Poetry allows us to return to the sacred use of language which makes us more empathetic towards others. It sheds light in dark places and puts positive constructs on negative feelings. Poetry is a soothsayer, a bridge, a place where the soul can truly speak of the beauty and suffering in the world.
Thank you for visiting the Fox Path!

Just Another Day
by Terri Glass
It's just another doughnut day in the universe.
I want to smash my face into flour, fluff and sweetness
and forget anything that prevents me from feeling
the absolute joy of birdsong or yellow balloon
whether it be deadline or telephone line
the electronic busyness of our lives
for there are rows of tulips conspiring pink
and lovers breathless next to willow trees.
There are lilacs whispering among their twisted trunks
and windmills whirling through Van Gough's ear.
