Gregg Orifici’s Rattle of the Sun is a meditation on the personal and the monumental. His poems are carefully crafted portraits of longing, discovery and rambunctious joy, giving voice to misunderstood weeds, the irrepressible elderly, a boy coming to terms with his diff erence, and the plight of the gardener who, to create beauty, must play God in the garden.

Gregg Orifici is a Vermont based writer and garden designer.

“I composed these poem-prayers during the global pandemic. The words came to me from Spirit, during meditations, and I changed them very little. This book is a way to share them with you. May they touch your heart and soul, and lighten your path in life.” -Skye Stephenson on her book Heart of the Universe 21 and the Tower.

Skye Stephenson lives in Keene, New Hampshire. She has written a monthly column in the Monadnock Shopper for fifteen years. Recently retired from Keene State College, where she served as Director of the Global Education Office, her interests include writing, spirituality, and sacred sites. Her recent collection of poetry is, in part, inspired by two of her favorite poets: Tagore and Neruda.
