“First Light, Last Light” is a poetry collection by Glen Sorestad that beautifully captures reflections on family, memories of youth and friendship, road trips, morning phone calls, and the often bittersweet experience of aging.

The poem “Stay in Touch” evokes the tenderness of parting words we offer to friends or family embarking on a journey. It reminds us of the deep desire to keep our loved ones close, even as we accept their departure.

In “Language Borders,” Sorestad explores those moments when words fail us—when silence feels safer than saying something that might wound or be impossible to take back. The poem is a thoughtful reflection on restraint and empathy in communication.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this collection. Each poem touched on themes that felt both personal and universal, making it easy to connect with the poet’s experiences. I know I’ll return to this book again, and I look forward to discovering more of Glen Sorestad’s work.
