From Germany to California, with stops in Paris, Turkey, and Greece,these poems are a collection of the yearnings within us all -- questions asked,answers given, and much that ' never will.'Still: that love and loss are the greatest gifts, the deepest sorrows one canever know. And who can say what God is -- if finding Him, we are bothshattered and fulfilled?May it never be that there is no final 'after...' that there may always besomething wonderful, rising from 'the deep' within.When one loves too intensely, thevulnerability is ever there for disaster.We are so fragile, so weak; yet strongerthan imagined when tested. One hopesthat day will never come-yet come itwill. And always we are unprepared.But life was not meant to be livedon eggshells. Strength is most oftengained from failure.These poems run the range of simpleobservation to the shattered real ofpersonal confession... tracing theevolution not only of history andall it implies, but to the progressand confrontations we must everacknowledge within ourselves andregarding others. As an old adageimplies: win or lose, the game must beplayed, and hopefully we may dancewell. Though life is far from a game.Yet the prizes are many, and the lossesvaried. As much as one can, we mustever seek to value the ride.

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....
