In this collection, poet Scott Wiggerman does not write alone. He plays with two poetic forms-ghazals and golden shovels-that invite him to draw from the Emily Dickinson poems that speak to so many of us. The resulting poems end up far richer than simple reframings of Dickinson's work. Her words serve as inspiration, a beginning point for Wiggerman to create fresh works entirely his own-poems that can continue speaking to us today.

Scott Wiggerman is a retired librarian and a late-life artist who coordinates the annual Poets Picnic in Albuquerque. His poetry focuses on many forms-not only ghazals and golden shovels, but also sonnets, haiku, and haibun. He teaches workshops on different poetic forms and is active in the literary community.
