A Harvest Kiss presents a new collection of poetry that uses the allegory of the harvest to reflect the maturing a Christian undergoes, having the chaff threshed and the whole grain saved with the ultimate goal of producing something tangible to share lovingly with others. It begins with a warning about the power of words. This collection is divided into five sections, each of which describes how a person is spiritually harvested and then threshed to remove the shell of irrelevant parts of life that do not produce fruit. It progresses through the various stages of growth and harvest-'The Harvest,' 'The Chaff,' 'In the Barn,' 'The Burn Pile,' and 'A Revelation'-to the realization that occurs when dead things in our life are removed and love comes to fruition.Harbinger of HarvestBlack birds cackle,Crackle, screech,Some do caw,Before the dawn,Nightingales gone awry?What cause is this to sing away,When sun no longer shines?False light they seek,Who dread the night,That restful slumber, a respite death,With morning resurrection---O’ Joy!Black birds screeching in the dead of night,A Harbinger of Harvest,A King’s guard who splits the quietude of night,Shrieking warning calls,A Thief, a Thief, such birds do cry!Awake, O’ Watchman,Hear the warning call.

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular.
