New Moon by Half

<p>Drawn from material written over five decades this book brings together a remarkable body of work a lifetime in poetry.</p><p>Within these pages Scott Oury explores with honesty moments easily overlooked and those difficult to ignore: family love the human connection with the natural world and beyond an unoccupied space a chance meeting in an airport a forgotten wristwatch—and other instances of unexpected beauty.  In the words of the author “All of it and much more—whatever captured my eye or ear and stirred feeling—got put into words.”</p><p>Evocative lyric and intimate these poems celebrate the grace found in the mundane the painful and the overlooked forging a new way of seeing for both writer and reader. </p>
