Allowing the Light (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781550810738)

The word allow has roots in the Latin verb laudare, to praise. These poems seek to allow the music of that which is muted in a world of bellowing. In Section I light plays on the veined ways of vegetation, of poetry, of eros. Section II illuminates states of alienation and longing. The fierce light of Swift bu s in Section IV; these poems lament Newfoundland's losses and celebrate its landscape, language, and culture.
