This poem is from the chapbook The Argument of Time by Jenny Isaacs (Finishing Line Press), and can be found at https://finishinglinepress.com/product/the-argument-of-time-by-jenny-isaacs/
Jenny Isaacs graduated at a precociously young age from Johns Hopkins University with a degree in writing poetry, then wrote “around the edges” of her life for 40 years while raising three daughters to adulthood. Now retired, she lives with her husband four doors down from her own parents, on the shores of a creek near the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. The Argument of Time, her first collection, was awarded publication as a semi-finalist in Finishing Line Press’ Open Chapbook competition.
