Diana Hayes has given us a mesmer, an exquisite, lyrical collection, poignant with the past of oceans, rocks, islands, the global environment.. Hayes writes as 'fog falling beyond water,' catching the reader off guard, drawing us in. Read this book and 'savour (the) words slowly like it’s a matter of survival.' Myth is embodied in the particulars of place. She paints a 'olfactory, tactile' world of colour that is both keenly observed and gloriously illustrated. Hayes steers us through heavy storms, her call for compassion permeating as we battle mortality in the search for meaning. Symbolism seeps through photos like 'Bridging the White Water' and close ups of roses and dragonflies, musicality hooks readers, then transports them beyond words to mood and time. '

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...

    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....
