Mayweed Frannie Lindsay

Poetry. Winner of the 2009 Word Works Washington Prize. With seamless craft and lyricism, Frannie Lindsay elevates personal grief to a universal level. Through the natural world, she invites mayweed, earnest as milkmaids to flood the valley of death. Lindsay offers the reader light, often surprisingly warm, in the chill darkness of death.
