This short collection contains 24 poems selected from Andrew’s other published collections.

The title poem is reprinted below:

Who sets the heart for wonder?
What triggers the spring of praise?

Look! In a tumble of pink on the scree,
triggerplants—primed with pollen,

hammers cocked. Like the children,
I kneel to touch the heart of a flower.
