The group of poems were written in Nova Scotia, Canada and contain the inspiration of a land and sea that have affected me deeply. Although not the place in which my husband and I reside most of the year, it has become very dear. .An old house, a pebbled beach and a new environment have given us, in unexpected ways, gifts allowing us both to come to terms with a life lived, while also bestowing upon us a gift of new beginnings. This group of poems, then, is dedicated to our new home and the landscape and seascape that we now share where there are no boundaries between time and space, beginnings and endings, where all things appear to exist simultaneously: on the horizon, within the sea and upon the land, and where, most important of all, life seems good.

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....
