Glass-Eyed Paint in the Rain: Poetry of the American West

In this slim book of poetry, Laurie Wagner Buyers captures both the beauty and the harsh reality of life lived on the ranches and farms of the American West. In To Kill a Cat, you feel the love in this hard man who shoots the cat--one shot--and buries it for her. In The Taste of Honey, she imagines the longed for spring. In the Shadow of Black Mountain, one glimpses the beauty of character in the long-time ranch woman being laid to rest. Eunice Boeve, author of Ride a Shadowed Trail

My first real introduction to poetry. She is a wonderful writer. I not only enjoyed the poems, I learned from them. The only thing better than the book is attending an event where she reads her work aloud!
