This 8 1/2 ft. bronze, like many of Aprille Best Glover's sculptures, had poetry hidden inside. See Poem Below. In addition, over hundreds children and adults from the city of Roswell contributed their hopes and wishes for the future. Each person was given a leaf collected from the site and asked only to be positive. The epitaphes, funny and wise were all collected, documented and placed inside the sculpture where they form a invisable link between the commuity and the sculpture. A original handmade artist book documenting the whole project is on permenent display at the Roswell Visual Arts Center. This commission is made possible by a $25,000 Emerging Artist Grant from the One World Foundation. It curently installed publicly in Roswell ,Georgia outside of the Roswell Visual Arts Center. |

Poem inside Angel Memory and Desire, they twist and dive
over the glassy slow waves like birds for fish. You could walk barefoot a million miles
in late summer nostalgia, Yes, You, the birds, and a few fellow tourist- How long will we each in turn walk at the
edge of the jade sea before we each in turn realize |
