Rolling Injera in Boulder | the beauty we love

The beauty we love. Rolling Injera in Boulder. November 17, 2009 at 10:47 am Posted in Poetry. Now I don’t want to spoil your chance to be mystified and slightly lost when you read this next poem (my work often has that effect, I’m told), but I will give you just a tiny bit of context. Well that was more context than I planned on giving and probably more than you bargained on hearing – but there you have it. As always, comments are welcome. Rolling Injera in Boulder. That caturanga dandasana, downward dog.

The beauty we love. Time You Let Me In. April 12, 2010 at 9:25 pm Posted in Poetry. I’ll blame it on my travels, but I’ve still been remiss in not mentioning my first book publication, Naomi Nye’s anthology. Time You Let Me In. So thank you to Naomi, Jack, and to anyone who’s read the book! It’s been an honor to be involved and to share the experience with so many great friends and great poets.

https://laureneriks.wordpress.com/about
The beauty we love. 8220;Let the beauty we love be what we do.” — Rumi. Since graduating from Hope College in 2008, I’ve been earning my keep as a teacher, farmer, set builder, and bookseller, all the while making my way from continent to continent in search of life and experience. I’ve also been writing (though it doesn’t contribute much to my “keep”), and this website houses a number of my finished and in-progress projects. I hope you enjoy reading them. I have been honored to have my work appear in.

The beauty we love. Don’t Marry a Drunkard to Reform Him. October 6, 2009 at 10:43 pm Posted in Poetry. One of my favorite “oldies,” if you will, a poem I wrote in my college-days, whisky-and-cigarettes phase entitled “Don’t Marry a Drunkard to Reform Him,” just came out in the fall issue of the Boston Literary Magazine. Check it out if you have the time. The magazine is really wonderful to writers and wrote me a fabulously personal response. Create a free website or blog at WordPress.com.

This Poem is No Place for Dashes | the beauty we love
https://laureneriks.wordpress.com/2009/09/14/thispoemisnoplacefordashes
The beauty we love. This Poem is No Place for Dashes. September 14, 2009 at 8:47 pm Posted in Check it Out. I’ll share a poem-in-progress of mine, as a two-part tribute to two amazing women. The title comes from a lovely poet friend of mine, Brianne Carpenter, whose website is forthcoming and most certainly worth the wait. The epigraph is from a friend, brilliant professor, and soon very-likely-to-be-best-selling-author, Rhoda Janzen. You can check out a preview of her book here. 1 Comment ». I really li...
