Shape of a Hillpoetry, prose poetry - Tapa blanda

From the Santuario de Chimayo to the banks of the Chaco River, Stewart describes the beauty and depth of the natural world, both human and non human. Some of the poems in this collection are histories, both personal and universal, some are maps to the less discovered landscapes of the soul. And while the author daringly, believingly examines the dark side, he leaves the reader with a sense of hope and overall correctness about the world.

Stewart Warren is author of four collections of poetry and a newly released collaboration with photographer Corinna Stoeffl, Essence: contemplations in image and word. As publishing coach and organizer of community events, Stewart uses his expertise to assists others in deepening their creative experience and realizing their artistic visions. Stewart's regional work, that of Norteño, has been referred to as American Folk Heart Poetry. The tag line on his website, "The miracle, of course, is that we are here," is consistent with Stewart's observation of the sacred in everyday language.
