FIRST

I’m pleased to share that my poem “First” is now live at https://formidablewoman.org/fws-what-we-kept-a-geogrphy-vol-6-no-2-fall-2026/. It’s a pocket-themed anthology which can be read or downloaded for later reading. FIRST appears on page 36 (numbered at the bottom) though it shows page 37 on the toolbar at the top. Many thanks to editors d ellis phelps and Rachel Aguirre for including it. I love it when poems written long ago finally find a good home!
