Cuttings of the Infinite is a lyrical meditation on the quiet moments, invisible thresholds, and transformative truths that exist all around us-if we pause long enough to notice. In this debut poetry collection, Caroline Rose weaves together themes of resilience, environmental grief, spiritual wonder, and radical tenderness, honoring both the grandeur of the cosmos and the holiness of the everyday.
From dishwater bubbles and cold coffee to extinct seeds and star-swept skies, each poem in this collection reveals the sacred embedded in the mundane. With a voice both intimate and expansive, Rose invites readers to witness the slow alchemy of healing, the beauty in imperfection, and the persistence of life in even the most withering stems.
These are poems for anyone who has felt like an outsider looking in, who has longed for stillness in a noisy world, or who has wrestled with what it means to be whole in a time of fracture. Grounded in deep attentiveness and fierce compassion, Cuttings of the Infinite offers a poetic sanctuary-a space to remember that even in endings, something luminous is always beginning.
Caroline is a poet, wife, dog mom, and passionate writer whose work explores the complexities of love, loss, and healing. Drawing from both personal experience and her science background, Caroline crafts poems that delve into the delicate balance between connection and separation, joy and sorrow, often infusing her poetry with themes of science and the natural world. When not writing, she is a chemistry professor and climate scientist, always seeking to foster connection and growth in both the scientific and emotional realms of life. She lives in Western Washington, where she enjoys dancing, traveling, and exploring the intersections of science and human experience.
