Through the poems in Spans, Elizabeth Seydel Morgan examines life
from the perspective of one who appreciates the complexities of the
world but finds pleasure in events as predictable as the changing
of the seasons or as uncomplicated as a visit to an art museum.
Morgan accepts the inevitability of change but mourns the loss of
""what we don't know / that we cannot live without."" By couching
her wry insights in deceptively simple language, Morgan can
commemorate a long-ago game of hide-and-seek in the same darkly
humorous tone that she employs to recall tragedies both natural and
manmade. With wit and more than a touch of melancholy, she
contemplates the disappearance of the world's honeybees, the
vagaries of friendships and romances, and the quiet satisfaction of
garden plantings. Her poems invite the reader to examine without
resentment the multifaceted world we inhabit, with all its
frustrations and pleasures.
