Prairie Light is a book of poetry and pictures all about the lovely, changeable seasons we have here in the Mid-West. Each one is special and each has its own unique beauty. We may grumble a bit (especially about winter) but we do so look forward to each season as it arrives. Some would say we look forward to them leaving, too, but that’s a different book for for a different day. Prairie Light begins in deep winter when the snow is piled high and moves through the year back to winter again. Each poem is illustrated with an original photograph that I think captures the light, the beauty, or customs we have here. Attention Readers: all the poems are short, interesting, and illustrated! No bedtime will be harmed by reading this book! Also, literary devices such as poetry patterns, descriptive language, rhyming, similes, etc. can be found in this book. It’s a good read and has learning opportunities at the same time. I hope you enjoy Prairie Light.

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.
