Ever the Sky follows a speaker in motion between states of being, between selves, between the earth and whatever sky hovers just beyond reach. These poems chart a constellation of quiet ruptures and luminous repairs, capturing moments where grief opens into astonishment, and stillness into revelation. With painterly attention and a deep sensitivity to the natural and surreal, the poems explore what it means to live in a shifting body, to long, to transform, and to recognize oneself—if only briefly—in the flicker of sky and light.

Ada Pendill is a poet based in the Philadelphia area. With a background in visual arts, she brings a painter’s sense of space and image to her writing, drawing inspiration from the natural world, visual language, and the subtle surrealism of the everyday. When not writing poetry or computer code, she spends as much time as possible with the birds and trees.
PRAISE:

 

Ever the Sky by Ada Pendill is a luminous collection that listens deeply to the language of the natural world. In poems that shimmer with wonder and quiet revelation, Pendill invites us to see the universe not as distant or indifferent, but as an eternal teacher who is “always revealing, always teaching.” Each page opens a conversation between earth and sky, self and cosmos, reminding us that to look closely is to be transformed.

–Leah Huete de Maines, Poet-in-Residence Emerita at Northern Kentucky University
