AM Spence’s collection of beautiful, evocative poems reminds me of those moments in our lives when a single, seemingly commonplace event triggers a flood of memories and emotions; the familiar sights and sounds that barely register in the present but mean so much more when revisited later in life.

AM Spence creates richly descriptive, multilayered, resonant poetry that encourages us to relish both the physical world and our own inner landscapes. Her poems are intimate, finely crafted pieces of art that beckon the reader to explore the events and memories, from fleeting to existential, that make us who we are.

Reflect is a deeply personal journey through wild nature and contemplative civilization that invites the audience to meditate about time, place, memory, dreams, and reality. AM Spence is our thoughtful guide on a wistful and joyous walk through a quiet forest that slowly reveals its secrets.
