In the words of author Anne-Marie Cappellano , "Poetry is like bird-watching—catching sight of something important or beautiful that could be gone in an instant, looking closely for the details. Poetry brings brief moments of clarity, when the indescribable is somehow described—a bird flying through the unconscious, caught and then set down on paper. Not trapped, but observed, lit up, and then released. An avid bird-watcher and conservationist, my husband Mark Cappellano taught me to watch patiently for birds through binoculars on our honeymoon in Spain. I’ve included some of his bird drawings." ... Anne-Marie Cappellano is a writer living in her native Los Angeles with her husband, two daughters and two dogs. Mark Cappellano , the husband of the author, is a longtime conservationist and artist living in Los Angeles. Instagram @cappellanoarts
