Praise for Everything You Love Is New

Ralph Earle's poetry is like a breeze wafting through a screen door in spring, companionable, comforting, trusting and true. You can feel safe here with these poems, safe enough to leave your front door open and to let them come into your life, mind, and heart. They have so much to give: insight, humor, surprise, and delight. They are not without sadness, because after all that's The Way the Rain Works, to borrow from Earle's earlier chapbook, some of whose poems find a welcome second home here, because all of our experiences are carefully voiced in these poems. Having spent lovely hours, awake not asleep, with these poems, I too can say Let Us All Be Happy and mean it, not just for myself, not just for my companions on a train, but for everyone.

-Paul Jones, author of Something Wonderful

In this luminous collection, Ralph Earle contemplates his life and ours, as we cross the darkness on a bridge of reed / between the ruin and the radiance. In poems that dazzle with surprising metaphors, precise language and close observations of nature, Earle relates his journey as son, brother, husband, father, grandfather and seeker of the Absolute. Life writes its stories on us, he says, and narrates his with quiet lyricism. Early in his marriage, days carried us weightless / as paper lanterns in the trees. Later his wife's mental illness worsens: wheeling out of the blue sky / of what we expected.... His gaze is clear and compassionate. He considers violence, oppression and injustice, the climate calamity, and waits for America to walk off a cliff / clutching its...red-white-and-blue / umbrella. Even so, these shimmering poems invite us to regard every moment as a lake / brimming with light.

-Janis Harrington, author of How to Cut a Woman in Half,
Waiting for the Hurricane

These poems are meditations composed of spiritual insights that emerge from Ralph Earle's close observation of everyday events, the voices of those who've come before, and encounters with the strange and inexplicable nature of the world. Each poem is voiced with an innocent wisdom and subtle humor constructed from his personal fears, social-political perspectives, and reflections on the natural world.

His section, Cold Days in Eden, reveals a deeply compassionate and intense exploration of the challenges and rewards of family life while Enter the Weather is an honest self-exploration. He writes: The weather of our lives / begins to turn. It is in this turning that one finds solace and pain, regret and pleasure.

These poems are insightful, private and honest in their perspectives. As he writes in the last poem in the collection: as we slowly take our leave of this world / so random and so transient, let us all be happy. Earle's passionate skill, quiet and intense, is an empathetic reach into the very heart of living.

-Chapman Hood Frazier, author of The Lost Books of the Bestiary
