River of Stars

 Poems & Art by Vonnie Winslow Crist,                 Photos by Melissa Ann Crist

available from Amazon 


  "What a terrific read! Magic and myth rustle sonorously in the pages of Vonnie Winslow Crist's latest collection, River of Stars. Here is a book rich in mysteries which the poet has made tangible. Exciting stuff!" - Clarinda Harriss, English Department Chair, Towson University, and Director of New Poets Series & BrickHouse Books

        *The poems in River of Stars were given a         Maryland State Arts Council Poetry Award.

  "Like rivers surging toward a larger sea, details leap toward metaphors of understanding about the human condition. Crist's poems are marked by her desire to see the macrocosm in the microcosm. Through fable and myth and legend she explores the larger meanings of the human condition, the hungers of the human heart." - Michael S. Glaser, Maryland State Poet Laureate, Professor of English, St. Mary's College, and Director of St. Mary's Poetry Festival

   "These poems by Vonnie Winslow Crist are populated by dark birds & wolves that haunt a nature transformed by myth & magic. Here are the rhythms of moon & tide orchestrated into a concert of language steeped in the love of mystery.... There is throughout a sense of reverence for & celebration of moment to moment life as a gift & sacrament...." - Dr. Gary Blankenburg, English Teacher, Catonsville High, and Director Eclectic Press. 


Essential Fables

Poems & Art by Vonnie Winslow Crist

available from Amazon 


  "Roads are a continuing presence in Essential Fables - the poems offer neatly and emphatically presented observations, or scenes, almost as if the writer were hurrying by. The poems, slight of discourse, are nevertheless sharply focused, pithy, and memorable." - Mary Oliver, Pulitzer Prize winning poet

*The poems in Essential Fables were given a Special Merit Award from Baltimore's Artscape.
