Sobre IBD

The joy of Christmas, more and more understood within the traditions of the feast of the incarnation, brought a brooding meditation over several years, leading to a series of poems of varying lengths in celebration of the experience and the thought of Christmas. Most of these poems came during the period 1987–2004 with a recent addition lured from my pencil by the work on this book. This last appearing poem is perhaps an epilogue on the devotion of Christmas.

    Jennifer Chrystie
    ‘There’s a touch of both Dickinson and Larkin in Jennifer Chrystie’s mature exhumation of the tales and tropes of family. 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....

  • Familiar Smiles and Aging Faces
    William Flewelling
    Writing poetry has proven to be a great aid in seeing what I see, hearing what I hear. From my perspective, something happens, something gets noticed. The image, the happening strikes my mind, entices some response in words. An image or sequence of images appear and enter into a line. The line bears for me a cadence and a sound. Vowels tend to be important to me and help t...

  • That Innocence Of Dreaming
    William Flewelling
    Poetry writing has proven proficient at helping me see what is there to be seen, hear what is there to be heard. I will see or hear or reflect on something which then provides an image, a nuance that emerges in a word, a line. The single line and image, written, provides a cadence, a focus of sound and echo that invites a second line, and more. Usually, the poems come quick...
