Short, but deeply in touch with life, the poems mark the movement of the sun from daybreak to darkness"The Great Unseen." They chart the unfolding of the seasons. They lift and swing"Create a Space"; "A Prayer for Song Birds."
Some of the poems stand sturdy and stalwart"Choice of Timbers"; "There Grows a Tree."
Some notice "Weeds"; some "Noise and Stillness."
They introduce "Gruffalo the Buffalo" and the color "Pink."
They observe "The Silver Road" that stretches out from the moon.
God is everywhere present, instigating the beauty and delight that run through all these poems. They are the work of writers who are well-known and lesser known; from the past and from today.
Ruth Rivers pen-and-ink drawings, filled with splashes of color, add vibrancy to these full-of-life poems.
