Bibliography Download the PDF Introduction Since her first poetry collection in 1981, Pattiann Rogers has built a reputation as one of America’s most perceptive and thoughtful poets. Her works generally concern the natural world, with close observation of simple facts used to build the case for a higher order in the universe. This is certainly true of “The Greatest Grandeur,” from Rogers’s 1993 collection Geocentric . In this poem, Rogers explores a variety of things that people have considered the greatest grandeur, or sign of the universe’s infinite wonder. With carefully chosen words and contrast of images, Rogers makes the magnificence of the natural world come alive on the page. The examples that Rogers gives of candidates for the greatest grandeur in life range from the tiny electrons that surround an atom, to the raging seas, to the open sky itself. In the end, the poem suggests that the greatest grandeur of the universe is found in “the dark emptiness contained in every next moment.” As with all of Rogers’s poems, a religious reverence is felt, but she does not advocate any one religious system; instead, she finds an aspect of nature that includes most major religions.

After earning a bachelor of arts degree in English literature from the University of Missouri in 1961, she worked as an English teacher to support him through graduate school. He became a geophysicist, providing a connection to science that can be seen throughout Rogers’s poetry. After the birth of the couple’s first son, Rogers stayed home to take care of him; another son soon followed.

"If Dying Means Becoming Pure Spirit" "Stone Bird" "The Art of Raising Gibbons and Flowers" Naomi Shihab Nye "Pattiann Rogers is one of the most original voices of recent decades. Readers who savor her perceptions, her intricate, vastly intelligent sense of connections, are heartened indeliblyshe is a crucial poet for a disconnected time. . . . I could truly say there is something I love in every poem she has ever written." "The Family is All There Is" Diane Ackerman "I rarely read her poems one at a time, but in splurges, relishing the same elements in all of them: the brilliant onrushing voice that pours evenly through her poems, as if they were a single reverent song of life; the sheer surprise and ingenuity of her subjects, suppositions, and points of view; her keen roaming eye that's equally detained by the local and the universal, the fist of a mouse or the agencies of the stars. Having so many of her poems gathered together in one volume is a long-awaited pleasure." "Being Accomplished" "The Origin of Order" "The Compassion of the Iris" "Finding the Tattooed Lady in the Garden" ... "The Stars Beneath My Feet" Scott Russell Sanders "Coming on a new cache of poems by Pattiann Rogers is like discovering a secret meadow thronged with flowers and birds and bugs, a wild clearing undergirded by stone and encircled by trees and lite by stars. To find these new poems opening into the depths of her collected work is a blessing beyond reckoning, for here is a wealth of hard, loving, precise thought about the universe and its creatures unrivaled by any poet in our time."

Almost everything I've seen pushes toward the place of that state as if there were no knowing any other – the violent crack and seed-propelling shot of the witch hazel pod

The Singing Place by Pattiann Rogers from Eating Bread and Honey The Singing Place For the orange, saucer-eyed lemurs indri of the family sifaka it is the perfect forest of the hot, humid zones. There, at sunset and dawn, they all pause arboreally and chorus, howling, hooting, shaking the shadows overhead, the fruits and burrowing beetles inside the many-storied jungle. They are the ushers, the chaperones, the screaming broadcast of darkness and light. The house cricket, the field cricket, the dead-leaf cricket make song places of the warmest, darkest niches they can find, at the bases of stones, in grass stem funnels, the mossy underbark of southside tree trunks. For the sage grouse, male, the real

Pattiann Rogers (born 1940, Joplin, Missouri) Poetry on Peace Pattiann Rogers: Peace All Seasons, Each Night Edited by Peter Y. Chou WisdomPortal.com Peace All Seasons, Each Night The husk-thin skull of a hummingbird or little pocket mouse, light as a leaf of dry cotton grass, weightless as an empty milkweed pod, can be cradled nicely in the crook of one finger. The purple- spotted grey egg of a pipit, the pale blue egg of a bunting, each can be nestled comfortably in the hand of a child. And a smooth cherry pit or a pearl button or a pea-sized pebble can be taken up and held lovingly in the soft curl of a tongue. But no one alone could ever encircle the horned head-bone of a triceratops with both arms and draw it to the breast for solace or soothe the moon our of its stiff-starch routine into an easeful rest against the heart. An Arctic wind in a rock canyon, with its waves and whips of snowy dust, might likewise be considered so deprived. Some speak of the sargasso sea as a cradle, because, in its largess, it sways and rocks and appears to enfold and nurture spikes and claws, fins
