Congratulations to Fredericksburg poet Elizabeth “Beth” Spragins on the release of her new collection “The Language of Bones”

Congratulations to Fredericksburg poet Elizabeth “Beth” Spragins on the release of her new collection “The Language of Bones” available from Amazon HERE.

Elizabeth Spencer Spragins truly is in touch with ancient bards and the glorious music of the incantations of druidic sisters in her collection The Language of Bones. Roaming the geography and history of America, these verses hark back to the British and Celtic ancestry of the original European settlers. “Children run unshod, / Armed with goldenrod,” reenacting the past as they unknowingly step on its buried remnants. As the poet writes, the reader will indeed “linger late” and read with “awe and meditate” on history written in the earth and echoed in these lyrical poems inspired by those ancient bards.
