Linda Ellis

Marietta, Georgia, USA

Widely known as Linda Ellis’ best poem yet, “The Dash” is a heartfelt evaluation of the way we spend our own lives- that time defined by a dash between the date we are born and the day we die. Her soulful, lyrical tone reflects hints of Gaelic culture, while the simplicity of its words show clues of loyalty to traditional folklore.
