An anthology of short, lyrical poems. During the pandemic lockdown, people felt isolated because their movements and meetings were restricted. From the confronting sadness of those times and by recalling treasured memories of the major influences in her life, Pam Ward found she developed a keener appreciation and awareness of the natural world around her.In the first of three groups of poems, she describes and explores her observations and her own emotions during and after the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020-21. In the second, she reflects on some of the people she has loved and examines how they helped to shape her view of the world. In the final group, she learns to value even more highly some precious encounters with endangered animals, birds and plants. She points out that their existence is threatened in the same way and by the same forces as our own. We are not separate from the world around us: we share both its dangers and its destiny.

  • 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....
