Book description (provided by author):

A Tapestry of Moments:

A Tapestry of Moments is a soul-stirring collection from North Fond du Lac’s poet laureate Jeffrey McAndrew—a lyrical journey through memory, longing, and the quiet resilience of hope. With the voice of a musical storyteller and the eye of a community healer, McAndrew honors the sacredness of everyday life—its ache, its wonder, its wild grace. From midnight reflections to love reimagined, these poems illuminate what it means to be fully alive in a fractured world. Pieces like Hope, Follow Your Bliss, and Where Quiet Lives call us to emotional courage, connection, and sanctuary. Minimalist in form but maximalist in feeling, McAndrew’s lines are meant to be read aloud, felt deeply, and carried into the heart’s quiet corners. This is poetry as ritual, resistance, and renewal—for those who still believe in the healing power of words.
