An editor and longtime student of Zen Buddhism, Twichell crafts poems of lyrical precision and insistence. Throughout Twichell's career her poems have exhibited a deep and urgent love of the threatened natural world, and have delved into childhood memories and the surprise and nourishment that come from radical shifts in outlook.
