The Seasons of Yes: Poems and Images (Winner of the 2008 New Mexico Book Award in Poetry)
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

Readings and Workshops
Spring 2010

JUNE 11th at 8pm in Chicago, IL

The “Songs of Yes” composed by my friend, Lawrence Axelrod,
and based on six of my poems, will be performed in a concert by

CUBE Contemporary Chamber Ensemble
at Gottlieb Hall, Merit School of Music, 38 South Peoria, Chicago, IL at 8pm

“I wrote the composition a few years ago. It is scored for twelve instruments, mezzo-soprano and speaker….The poetry in Lorraine’s collection, The Seasons of Yes, is earthy, succinct and full of verve and images to fuel the musical imagination….The resulting 16-minute piece is at turns fun, exciting, deep and rewarding. The instrumentalists will all be among Chicago's finest new music players.”  Lawrence Axelrod
