''More poets than one might guess - both published and yet-to-be-discovered - lurk in the hollows and hills of Chesterville. On October 9, 2015, the first Chesterville Poetry Night on record was held at the Chesterville Center Union Meeting House. Chesterville poets and their admirers gathered in the time-honored community space to share truth and beauty, wit and wisdom. Several present-day artists read their own works, while works of a few authors from the town’s past were read by current residents. This little volume is the result of the generosity of the Poetry Night artists and the hard-working volunteers behind the non-profit Meeting House. We hope it will preserve part of the spirit of that evening. Our even greater hope is that it will inspire more poetry and poets to emerge from the hidden reaches of Chesterville.''Chesterville Center Union Meeting House, Inc.Board of Directors 3

Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding. The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

  • 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. Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....
