Welcome to Louise Mathewson's home on the web where you can read Louise's monthly featured poems and essays, visit her links, sign the guestbook and learn more about her life and work.  

Louise's work is included in the newly released poetry anthology, Mentor's Bouquet (Finishing Line Press, Linda Leedy Schneider (Ed.).  The collection includes work created by a diverse group of poets from across the United States.  

Michael Spring, author of Mudsong (Pygmy Forest Press) and Poetry Editor for The Pedestal Magazine says "There is a primal presence in this collection. It is made up of voices from a highly diverse community. Or perhaps it would be more fitting to say tribe or family. The authenticity and intimacy of the voices are memorable. Mentor's Bouquet is a collection of poems affluent with experiential insight and lyrical poise. It is also a testimony to the mentorship of (editor) Linda Leedy Schneider. We are present at some ancient storytelling ceremony. The fire crackles and there in the background are calloused fingers whispering the beat of a drum."
