John Blankenship’s poetry is a fascinating exploration of human experience, often set against the backdrop of the Appalachian region. His work is characterized by its vivid imagery, deep emotional resonance, and a keen sense of place. His poems often delve into themes of memory, loss, and the passage of time, capturing the essence of rural life with a poignant and reflective tone. Sometimes, these verses offer profiles of Hebrew biblical figures-Moses, Isaiah, David, Solomon-all of whom are alive and well at each Sunday service where the faithful come to worship among the hills. Here, the echoes of unspoken affections, lost opportunities, and distant hearts intertwine with the rhythm of the seasons. This poetry volume is not just a journey through the tender aches of longing but also an exploration of how the landscape itself holds with ghosts of those who loved, labored, and lived before us. In the creases of old love letters, the shadows of evening on front porches, and the fading echoes of whippoorwill songs hummed softly at dusk-these poems bear witness to love’s quiet departure - not forgotten, but woven into the fabric of the earth itself, forever changing and yet remaining unchanged.Overall, 'Love Lost to Time' is a thought-provoking and evocative collection that showcases John Blankenship’s talent as a poet. His ability to blend the ordinary with the extraordinary makes his book a must-read for poetry enthusiasts everywhere.

    Edward V Bonner
