'I Wasn’t There' is a selection of poems touching on death, teenage crushes, fairy stories, family, and love. Written with love for you to read with love!'I don’t know why but I run outside and stand in the garden, shivering, my face turned to the milky sky, arms clenched rigidly around my body, for the air is freezing now and the snow falling thicker and faster and I worry that Becky is cold ... she won’t be cold will she? Mum will keep her warm ... and Dad, and Dave, and Lily my mother-in-law. She should have a scarf, a warm coat, gloves, a hat ... I didn’t think of that at the time. I wish that she was at home, cosy, sitting on the fluffy orange rug in front of the fire, and not in a box with a nailed lid, that lies down a deep dark hole in the earth. My heart pounds with terror.'(Extract from 'You to Me Are Everything' - a novel by Debbie Chase)

    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.
