Welcome to Maya Shedd’s Temple: Literary Home of Linda Sue Grimes
My literary home is a place where my creative writing efforts reside. My first love in life was music and poetry, both of which I have pursued in fits and starts for many decades. In addition to songs and poems, I write essays featuring commentaries on poems, and about history, philosophy, politics, and spirituality. I also create vegetarian/vegan recipes.
Thank you for visiting!

EXCERPT: Emily Dickinson's speaker in "There's a certain Slant of light" reveals a mood of slight melancholy as she muses on a shaft of light streaming in through her window on a winter afternoon.
That streaming light through the window seems to tip and tilt, that is, "slant," in a way that causes the speaker to undergo that sense of melancholy, which is no ordinary gloom but brings with it a spiritual aspect.
