DEWPOINTS is a retrospective collection of poems that Laura Bernell wrote, till the time she was 67-years-old from when she was 10-years-old. A dewpoint, as the author sees it, is that instant at which amorphous thought and feeling solidify into an awareness that is so intense it forms into words. Each poem in this collection came from one of those moments. Each of these moments takes time to develop and comes unexpectedly. Each is precious. The resulting poem, or poetic dewpoint, may melt away. But at the time of its forming, each is a miraculous gift, no less than a drop of dew.

These poems are arranged in reverse chronological order, because that is what felt right. No pedantry or intentional message is intended by this arrangement. But maybe there is a story in the sequence, a story about going back to innocence.
