Winnowing The Darkness

In "Winnowing the Darkness", Earl LeClaire carries on with his personal inventory, and hard hitting observations of those, as he says are, “milling around.” In "The Last Codice", the last poem in the book, he says, “…Sing to the stars, make peace with the darkness, you will know yourself, and will become known. You will not want more than what you have, for you will have everything, the luxury of enough.” Earl LeClaire’s poetry is accessible, poignant, witty, and heart-felt, and if you look, full of internal rhyme and tight structures. ~Dr. Karen Kurzman.
