Albatross

Seabirds of the albatross kind can cover great stretches of ocean in a single day, and that stamina is what draws Ramona to them. She loves the sea and hopes to take on the bird's sense of liberty. In this collection the albatross serves as a totem, and the poems act as a way to step away from everyday life. The journey begins on solid ground, moves out across rolling currents, and ends at the horizon.
