Mississippi Meanderings

Below are photographs of people, places, and moments in time which reflect the subjects of many of the poems in my chapbook, Mississippi Meanderings. The poems are musings during and after a kayak trip with my husband from the Mississippi Headwaters to the Gulf of Mexico. Enjoy the photos as you accompany us, through poetry, down one of most scenic rivers in America!
