Goddess of Swizzle invites the reader to "a feast for here and now."

A recurring theme, given voice in the title poem, is a call to focus on and value the

present moment-with its beauty and sorrows-rather than on some perfect scenario.

Ah, an occasional flight of fancy!

"Swizzle" means to stir or mix, as if with a swizzle stick. In this collection,

the author-who earned her MBA from the Maryland Bartending Academy-

stirs up memories from childhood, adolescence, midlife, including her passion

for ekphrastic poems.

This collection includes reflections on: Family, Colors, Love, Loss, Art, Healing, Celebration, Friendship, Community, Culture, Imagination.

Each poem is a story/vignette, and each includes mention of a food or drink,

to highlight ways we nurture ourselves and one another. These poems serve up

slices of the personal, yet spring from a universal palate.

May Goddess of Swizzle stimulate deep resonance for all who partake.

And may these poems offer satisfaction, joy, and refreshment.
