In Clouds for the Table, her new volumr of poems and paintings, Susie Sims Irvin offers an incredible collection of thoughts and images from a lifetime of creative work. In verse that is as honest as it is beautiful, Irvin lays bare the truth of a heart dealing with the joys and struggles we all share on our journey from birth to death. A wise spirituality permeates all of Irvin's writings, not the least of which are the numerous devotional poems that blend gracefully with her new work throughout the book.
