Gatherings
Overview
Dan Fitzgerald's poems are thoughtful and softly elegant with no pretense. He goes directly into his story painting a clear and detailed picture along the way while pulling us into its frame.
-Constance Kostelc, artist, journalist, poet and short story author
Gatherings' poetry makes ordinary things magical. Dan's poetry gets to the essence of things to reveal them.
-Kathleen Murphy, Chair: Central Region, Illinois State Poetry Society
Gatherings, by Dan Fitzgerald follows his superb debut collection weatherman. The author could not have chosen a better title. Fitzgerald draws his inspiration from where he lives, from the places, people, and experiences that have shaped his life and informed his world view. This is down-to-earth relatable poetry. I was especially moved by these lines from "Ever Last", "I held the hand of a child / while walking in a park, / told a woman I loved her / with everything in my heart. / The smiles they gave me / are the only things I have / that will ever last." Gatherings is a collection destined to stand the test of time and "ever last."
