Review of "Clouds on the Ground" by Autumn Williams

Clouds on the Ground by Autumn Williams is an immersive collection of poetry!
The poems are thought-provoking, yet the book itself remains a fast-paced read.
There are many lines that stood out to me, and I love how nature—the image of it all—plays a profound role on how the poetry is written, as well as the voice throughout the collection.
I was also a big fan of the beautiful illustrations by Drew Clark, and how the book starts with the chapter "Fall" and ends with a second "Fall" chapter—implying a cycle.
I'll end this review with a quote from "Part Four: Summer" (page 123):
"An old empty house
stands
abandoned
and waiting
I think eternity must be
suspended there"
