Sea Glass Poetry Collection

The Sea Glass poetry collection offers a serene and poignant journey through the ebbs and flows of the human experience. The poems have travel writer Lamont Mackay’s fingerprint on every page. Her debut poetry book is filled with vivid detail and a strong sense of place. This collection of creative and diverse poems, inspired by travel, memories, and dreams, is woven on the waves of life’s experience. Infused with detailed imagery and deep insight, these poems find meaning in nature, the world, and the everyday.  This poem, featured in the collection, exemplifies this:

A MOMENT

The water laps
with continuous ripples
and the breeze
barely lifts
the summer’s tattered flag from its pole

the sun
is almost set
with its late autumn rusty-orange glow

the Canada geese
honk
in training
for their upcoming sojourn south

and
I
slip
so easily
into a state where I would like to remain forever

suspended

in the breeze
in the sound
in the cool early-evening air.

 

Poetry is comforting and healing. This poetry collection is a timeless reminder that, like sea glass polished by the tides, our experiences shape us into resilient and beautiful treasures.

“The poems in this book provide a glimpse into the poet’s heart and soul. Her reactions and reflections.”
–Phyllis Hinz
