Spring Haiku

     Spring sneak preview
          through lush green foliage
                one purple finch

Cluster of purple
in fine spring rain
faint scent of lilac

          Like white boomerangs
          over the surface of the pond
          Forster's terns flyyyy

  • The Song of Yes

    List Price $12.95 (plus $2 shipping & handling)
    The Song of YesThese are poems in full blossom, displaying a deep love of nature, a practiced love of language, and an unabashed love of love. Languid and playful on the surface, the poems can quickly turn to breath-catching moments of surprise and flashes of feeling and insight. ~William Carney, Author of Mountain, An Evolutionary Epic
    In this book of nature poetry, Terri Glass enters into the world of landscape and imagination, and becomes transfixed by the beauty and mystery of what she encounters there. Whether it is a Red-winged blackbird, falling leaf or tidal pool, each is a portal into the place of no space and time.

    From the Crystalline Lattice
    My love for you
    is beyond gender,
    beyond the constraints of personality
    beyond space and time.
    It is contained in the marvelous crystalline lattice,
    held by the heartstrings,
    plucked like a harp,
    dipped into the well of clear water.

    We are here for an instant
    and vanish like a snowflake,
    our imprint shimmering against
    the glass pane.
    But the heart, the heart
    it lasts forever.

  • The Body of the Living Future: A Poetry and Music Odyssey

    Poetry & Voice by Terri Glass | Music by John Walsh

    List Price $12 (plus $2 shipping & handling)
    The Body of the Living Future CDA passionate fusion of poetry and music! ~Phil Cousineau, author of A Hero’s Journey and The Soul of the World
    The Body of the Living Future is a highly innovative blend of spoken word and contemporary music, which takes you on a journey exploring emotion, sensation, illusion and wakefulness. Twenty poems are woven with the rich fabric of an electronic soundscape where you can hear the colors and taste the sounds, feel the staccato pulse of fish underwater, a fox meandering down a path, a lover’s breath. Each piece moves toward a greater understanding of wholeness, embodying the wisdom of nature, the innate knowing of the body of the living future. Check out audio clips from this CD on the Poems page.

  • Unveiling the Mystical Light

    List Price $8 (plus $2 shipping & handling)
    Unveiling the Mystical LightComing across a Terri Glass poem is like discovering violet starfish under a coral reef or a mermaid who dreams of distant hills. ~Tom Robbins, author of Even Cowgirls get the Blues and Jitterbug Perfume
    These are poems of “steady light”, a term Robert Bly created to describe poems of praise, poems that embrace a new form of consciousness. Written in a fluid, sensual style, the author sinks her teeth into both earthly and spiritual delights. Here, one not only finds the beauty of geese in migration or a magnificent field of morning glories, but the looming dark thread of the human condition which is continually brought to light by the power and connection to the natural world.
