Dear Friends,

I have gathered a selection of my poetry from the last twenty-five years into a book called THE SEASONS. (You can preview or order the book here.)

I am grateful to everyone who has read and responded to the poems over the years. I will continue posting my new work here and in twenty-five years (or less) I will have book number two ready for you.

Warmly,

Kevin











first spring moon


                            
                                           Detail from portico mural by Jenny Heineman




sitting in the grass
like two frogs
on their asses
the wild
girl laughs 
as I point 
to the moon.

birds flit 
over head
while joyfully singing
and the sun’s
western bell
ends the day 
with red ringing.

all the small
secret places 
are appearing 
again with their
vibrating laws
that crack open
old men.

the poetry of Kevin Lawler

The gift economy . . .
from Wiki - In anthropology and the social sciences, a gift economy is a mode of exchange where valuable goods and services are regularly given without any explicit agreement for immediate or future rewards. Ideally, voluntary and recurring gift exchange circulates and redistributes wealth throughout a community, and serves to build societal ties and obligations.
