Florilegia (pl): a compilation of excerpts or sententia from other writing. Latin flos (flower) and legere
(to gather): a gathering of flowers; a collection of fine extracts from the body of a larger work. Adapted
from the Greek anthologia (ἀνθολογία) 'anthology'. merriam-webster.com

From restive Vikings to small-town teenage longing; a homesteader unsettled on his land, the drudgery of turn-of-the-century 'women's work'; a father casting in vain for dissipating memories, a boomer befuddled by advances in technology, the bitter recall of rigid rules at a 1960s dinner table. The poems in Florilegia are wide-ranging, but track a mason's line of common themes - love and loss and the complicated relationships with the places we call home.
