Lyric, Sometimes Quiet

Journey Daily with a Compelling Poem

Music and song can be found everywhere.

Ralph Stevens lives and writes on Little Cranberry Island on the coast of Maine, in the small community of Islesford, a beautiful and congenial place for the reading and writing of poetry. He is retired after a long career as an English professor, most recently on the faculty of Coppin State University in Baltimore. His two poetry collections are At Bunker Cove from Moon Pie Press and Things Haven’t Been the Same from Finishing Line Press. He is a Pushcart Prize nominee and has poems in a variety of publications along with readings on The Writer’s Almanac and Poems from Here, a production of Maine Public Radio.
