Barbara L. Thomas new poems in A Croesus of Joy contain the choice musings we've grown to love in her work: stirrings, allusions, and endearments that give us respite from the humdrum of everyday: “…I further invite the bell/ of morning in the guise/ of Thoreau,/ enjoy dawn/ sweeping over the Flathead…†from Yvonne. Thomas uses syntactical structure and concrete forms on the page, including indentations and centering, to highlight her visions of prayerful transformation. She is able to see through surfaces to the textures beneath, and especially adept at capturing those landscapes “Bathed in Moonlight†or gone “Ghostly†with “the lace of snow…†Her original voice teaches us yet again that the greatest wealth is joy.~Judith Skillman, author of Broken Lines—The Art & Craft of Poetry, Lummox Press, www.judithskillman.com
