The Seasons of Yes: Poems and Images
by Lorraine Schechter

This collection of poems comes from a six-year period when the need to write was as urgent as the need for water or food. I wrote almost daily, much of the time in my journal, but also in the language of rhythm and image joined with the pleasure in word and sound that said 'poem.' The themes are those of a woman at mid-life and reveal my passions: art and nature, family and friends, meditation and yoga.
Lorraine Schechter

The Seasons of Yes: Poems
by Lorraine Schechter

Like her paintings, Lorraine Schechter's poems both enact and celebrate vision. Her eye is never satisfied with surfaces, but continually explores those charged places where inner and outer worlds touch, mingle, collide. This book gives heart precisely because it takes in so much, affirming the poet's--and our--struggle for more bountiful life.
Jay Udall, Poet/Teacher

• The Seasons of Yes: Landscapes in Music and Poems
  Lorraine Schechter with Dana Winograd, Cellist

In preparing for our program, we selected the music of Bach, Britten, and Cassadó evocative of the color and light, textures and moods of the seasons. We chose a suite from my new book of poems that speak of the New Mexico landscape and explore those numinous spaces where inner and outer worlds meet. The poems and music interact and inform each other, at times overlapping spoken word into the music. Lorraine Schechter
