Much of the inspiration for these poems arose as a result of teaching the Celtic Myths and Deities course. There are so many Celtic deities, and each deity has so many different facets, and I love this kaleidoscopic experience of them! Hopefully, I have shared a little of that with the reader in this collection.

Would I dare to let go of the pain if it was real? |
There's more
