Star Salted Place

The poems in Trew’s second collection, Star Salted Place reflect the interplay of female power and the power of nature, which connects and transforms our own cycles of birth, living and death. 
The eucalypts of Ethiopia hold water in spring 
and women carry drums of rain 
(from Song to Song) 
Small winds blow everywhere over the land 
small winds in flames, homeless 
rise to their feet, run into a cloud 
become restless in flight 
voice of thunder over the rockpools 
the moon’s tidal rooms 
(from Song to Song)
