Heart Strong, Selected Poems 2000-2012 by Nina Serrano, published by Estuary Press, completes my trilogy Heart Suite presenting selections from my 43 years of poetic work begun with Heart Songs: 1969-1980 and then continued with “Heart’s Journey, Selected Poems 1980-1999.” This book includes my most matured poems as well as many drawings extracted from my journals and dreams or drawn expressly for a particular poem to extend the poetic visions beyond words. The exquisite cover by Adrian Arias and the other paintings and photographs presented in the book are by artist friends. I am especially proud of Estuary Press’ production values, from the layout of the drawings and poems to the table of contents and the inclusion of endnotes to explain the historic context of the poems and their poetic form, for later generations of readers.
Heart Strong presents poems divided into ten sections: 1. Woman. 2. The Moon, Always the Moon. 3.Dream World. 4.The Great Mysteries. 5. Global Meridians. 6. Seasons. 7. Love. 8. Learning to See in Darkness. 9. Gifts of the Muse. 10. Planetary Matters.
