Nameless as the Minnows

In Nameless as the Minnows, poems move through an early consideration of one's yet unrealized self being washed toward a faceless future, into an exploration of growth and resilience through family and loss, and farther into the miracles of forming a new family and finding one's true name among the wonders of the natural world, culminating in the spirit yet reaching toward the stars, the universe, still questioning the unknowable and praising "the small rituals of becoming and being."
