Barbara Parchim, Poet
I
"What Remains" is a collection of 31 of Barbara Parchim's poems – published and unpublished. These poems span love, loss, renewal and joy as well as intimate feelings and connections experienced in nature over a lifetime. They convey stories of the places we call home and our relationship to the landscapes that nourish us.
The book is enhanced by the original artwork of Pam Haunschild (www.pamhaunschild.com). The art illuminates subjects of the poetry.
"Parchim's poetry gently fondles the intimate heart of Mother Nature -- earth and sky, love and loss." - Thomas Carlisle, Poet
"Barbara’s ecologically-based poetry foretells trouble ahead for our world, but on a keenly observed personal scale." - Steve Utt, climate scientist
