Leaf Notes: Poems of the Plague Years is a book of lyric poems, inspired by the isolation and solitude, the insights and fears, the pleasures, and joys of the Covid years. These poems look through windows and reflect on the changing seasons inside and outside in the immediate neighborhood, the city, and the country as its citizens suffer the plague, endure the politics of fear and denial, as well as discover courage, beauty, meaning, love, and hope.
