A Sun Inside My Chest

<p>Terri Kirby Erickson's sixth collection of poems <em>A Sun Inside My Chest</em> is one of those big books the kind that fling themselves straight into our hearts and wedge there forever among the songs and prayers that sustain us. . . Her poems resound with a generous wisdom that recognizes elegy is as much a celebration as a mourning . . . This powerful book is here . . . to show us that loss is a catalyst for loving more deeply and in the dark night of the world light will find us whether or not we seek it. -Rhett Iseman Trull</p>
