Flight of the Kiwi: Ode to Friendship Trilogy, Book 3 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781534943087)

Perhaps it's time for a return Down Under! Symbolically at least, with one foot on either side of the Tasman Sea which separates those very independent, yet all too-similar, worlds of Australia and New Zealand. A shared heritage within my own family speaks of the two cultures which influence me to this day - forever shaping my thoughts, actions, and most assuredly these poems I write. As the thoughts become words, along the voyage of our third collection, I shall let my old region step forward as it wants - sometimes in silence, and then aloud, if the unmistakable urgings of former times insist on having a say in this, the final book of the 'Ode to Friendship Trilogy'. Appropriate, I might add, for the essence of friendship (mateship) is stirred down there in a very special way, quite unlike any other - though many are the roads I have traveled, the deepest of friendships I have seen!Written in the metrical rhymes of classical poetry, and which provides its own unique pleasure to the reader. No better way, or so it would seem, to express a journey of nostalgia that celebrates the human spirit while it navigates the too-often stormy seas of life.
