Q&A with Anne van Wijgerden
Our poetry team this week is featuring two new pieces by writer Ann van Wijgerden, titled 'Between the Tides' and 'The Dying Art of Letting Go'. Our team loved these works for their melody, their immense lyricism, and for their great range. Both poems are doing something very different from the other.
