Reading carefully through these collections of verse by four gifted poets intensifies the sense that writing verse is such a personal, nuanced, and remarkably precious activity. Collectively, the poetry of four ranges far and wide, both in terms of location and subject matter. From upstate New York, to Pennsylvania, to Wales, and to the Holy Land, these carefully crafted poems demonstrate that human experience, from the everyday to the intensely memorable, sometimes even spectacular, can be the subject matter for poetic consideration. They have one thing in common, however, and that is a desire to understand and express the human dilemma, the need to make meaning out of our short, transient relationship with the world around us. All, in one sense or another, also deal with the fragile nature of human perception and the challenge to write well, to capture what lies within the creative mind. All four poets do that well. Life and Death of Poetry, by Kelly Cherry, is broken into three parts, the first and third dealing with the domain of language and the role of the poet. There are some memorable poems in each of these sections. Sunday in Scotland is an excellent sonnet, clear and direct, mixing observations of the natural world with perceptive reflections on the function and effectiveness of language. same is true of Blue Jay in the Snow, Against Aphasia, and Wintering, poems which reflect on the act of writing. In Wintering, snow is the dominant presence guiding the poet's thoughts: While I eat, I read and the snow falls / on the tangled vines too light- / weight to stand up to Anonymous / as a nun, I write books, pushing my pen / across paper, or read others' books, / in a room as quiet as falling snow. Collectively, the poems in these two sections suggest the beginnings of a modern day Ars Poetica. second part of this collection, Table Talk, is clearly the more effective. A sequence of eighteen poems set on the Isle of Bardsey, in Wales, it is a subtle sequence of short poems conveying traces of narrative, juxtaposing the holiday joy of two children (daughter and friend) and the uncertainty and disappointment expressed by the father's female companion as she feels that a potentially close relationship is faltering. Set against a bleak Welsh landscape, the girls are active and at ease with each other, while the father and his companion are reflective and cautious, all possibilities ... dying like flies. woman is also saddened by the loss of a potential daughter, with Dream Daughter giving a lucid series of cameo glimpses of the young girl at work and play: By moonlight /I saw you setting tea-things on a table, / And the wind snapped the tea towel / Smartly, and the brass / Kettle you were holding by the handle / Shone, a star. keen sense of longing is palpable. reader is drawn into her assessment of possibilities through finely attuned poetic insights. It is an enduring selection of poems about promise and loss. Epiphanies, by Kim Bridgford, is a collection of forty-two sonnets based upon some significant events from the Old and New Testaments. Those from the Old Testament are as diverse as Noah, Moses in the Bulrushes, Jacob's Ladder, and Job. sonnets concerned with the New Testament focus on the life of and include titles such as The Carpenter, Jesus Walking on Water, The Last Supper, and At the Tomb. …" @default.
