New work from Pat Lee

A regular FSP member since 2012, Pat Lee has just released a new collection of her work Nudge The Morning, published by Ginninderra Press. One of the poems from her collection, One December Afternoon, also was published in InDaily.

‘Pat Lee’s poetry often reflects her respect and reverence for the things of the natural world. She has an artist’s eye for landscape and a Wordsworthian ability to paint it in lyric poetry. Many of her images and word choices have an inevitability about them, a surety that is enviable. Hers is a poetic voice that is true and trustworthy.’Click for more
