Full of wisdom and experience, the colors in Lori Levy's poems explore a range of subjects in terms of hue, lightness and saturation. They surprise and delight like the refraction and dispersion of light through a prism. Whether she is writing about "the scarlet of crepe myrtles in LA," "a brown bird hopping on a garbage can lid," or "vines sprouting from the sand in the Negev desert," Levy offers us a kaleidoscope of successive reflections on the things that matter to us most in life. They speak to us of the importance of family and, from a wider perspective, of the need for tolerance and understanding in an increasingly fragmented world.

I've been in love with Lori Levy's poems for years, and
contains some of her best. The memories in a blue/brown/pink mug painted by grandchildren, the allure of a red-orange sliver of mango, the majesty of gold in the afternoon sun...these poems paint portrait after portrait of love, pain, understanding, and absolution. Lori takes us from a kiosk in the LAX airport to a kibbutz sunroom in the Negev desert to a hammock in Panama. This poetic rainbow will make you smile, make you think, and make you grateful for this colorful world we live in.
