Suncatcher by Brian C. Miller

$17.99

In Brian Miller’s aptly-named Suncatcher, he explores love, childhood, and religious faith in moving and light-filled poems. Through striking images drawn from everyday life, Miller frequently invites readers to see the familiar world in fresh ways. These poems point us toward the possibility of hope and renewal.

–Caitlin Doyle, Published poet

Brian Miller’s chapbook reminds us of the power of quiet love. The poems in Suncatcher refresh how we see the mundane—from “particles” on the “coffee table” to “smoke in the sky,” from “fragile glass” to “raindrops.” Miller’s gorgeous poems slow time. They soften the edges of what’s difficult. They make every day extraordinary.

–Heather Lang-Cassera, Author of Firefall

These poems explore the aspects of the human condition, such as love, time, and faith during life’s pivotal moments. There are vivid poems about a lightning bug’s glow that shines on a lost love memory, flames from a fire pit that mirrors a girlfriend’s natural beauty, a viewmaster that lights up childhood memories, and the presence of God through a stain-glass window. There are also poems about heartbreak, such as “ghosting,” the cracks that break trust, and the memory overload of a past relationship. Readers go on an emotional journey that captures time, love, and faith—just like a suncatcher that reflects sunlight. #poetry #love #memories #faith
