  "Midway upon the journey of our life, I found myself within a forest dark, for the straightforward pathway had been lost."
  
  Embark on the ultimate pilgrimage of the human soul. Written while in exile, Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy is a towering achievement of world literature, a three-part journey that explores the totality of human experience, sin, and redemption. Guided by the Roman poet Virgil and the idealized Beatrice, Dante travels through the three realms of the afterlife in a quest to understand the justice and love of the divine.
  
  The Architecture of Justice: In Inferno, witness the meticulous "contrapasso"—the symbolic retribution where the punishment fits the crime. From the lustful swept by eternal storms to the treacherous encased in ice, Dante's vision of Hell is as terrifying as it is intellectually profound.
  
  The Path to Enlightenment: Ascend through Purgatorio, a realm of hope and effort, where the weight of worldly sin is slowly washed away. Finally, soar into Paradiso, where Dante transcends the physical world to explore the celestial spheres of heaven. Here, the poem transforms into a breathtaking work of light, geometry, and philosophical wonder, culminating in a vision of the "Love that moves the sun and the other stars."
  
  A Universal Masterpiece: The Divine Comedy is more than a religious text; it is a political satire, a romantic tribute, and a scientific encyclopedia of medieval thought. It remains the definitive map of the human conscience and one of the most beautiful poems ever composed.
  
  Walk the path of the soul. Purchase "The Divine Comedy" today and experience the height of the Western imagination.

  Tears, dropping, running like a river 
  Genuine attention needed 
  But how to wipe them with hands tied 
  Call for help, people will hear 
  Some might hear and turn a blind eye 
  Others might pretend they don't hear you cry 
  Yet a kind one must come running 
  If not running, to your aid, walking, scrambling

  Grandfather's Robin offers poems about People, Fellow Creatures, Society, Ekphrasis, Scenes and Moods, Survival, and Short Poems. They were written over several years, in response to people seen, read about, or known, and in response to creatures seen, read about, or known. Other poems respond to group and social behaviour, and reflect responses to works of art. Some poems are prompted by the natural world, urban and village life, and thoughts about the survival of all beings. The short poems offer instants both serious and humorous. 
  “So many reasons to enjoy Gillian Bickley’s luminous poetry – humour, depth and wisdom. ... Lovely and evocative, Bickley’s powers of observation and precise, selective description lend many of these poems the power of fine portraiture, a sepia photograph, where we see into the eyes, where we discover essence.” 
  — Jack Mayer, poet (Poems from the Wilderness) 
  “In this work, Gillian Bickley affords us a glimpse into her perspective. She invites us to reflect on the rich tapestry of life and our shared human experience. Why should you read this collection? Because there is no greater privilege than intimacy.” 
   —Mary-Jane Newton poet (Of Symbols Misused, Unlocking) 
    
   “... poems as moments of tranquility in which we can encounter lives unrolling in times that ... are anything but. To make a record such as this is a good resolution indeed, and I am pleased that Gillian has chosen for the cover a moment of tranquility I painted. As Mrs. Dorothy Collins might have said, reflecting, as these poems do, the quietness of a life-long practice, ‘Very well!’” 
  —Steven Schroeder, Chicago

  Sweet Dreams

  "Sweet Dreams'' consists of 42 original poems with bedtime, sleep, and dreaming as their central themes.  The poems are traditional in form  and follow rhyme and meter, done in in the fashion of Robert Louis Stevenson’s century-old classic, A Child’s Garden of Verses.         Topics include moonlit nights, snowy days, dreams of dinosaurs in the bedroom, annoyance at a Key West rooster crowing all night, what it would be like to wake up as a worm, the oddness of a fever ailment, gazing at autumn leaves from a gently rocking hammock, the comforting protection of an unseen guardian angel, and fancies like "The Softest Bed'' in which a child envisions himself curling up, wrapping himself in his warm, bushy tail, and sleeping like a fox.         Started when Telander himself was sick in a bed many years ago and had begun writing the poems in his head, this  poetry collection spoken by the author is a work of caring for boys and girls who must make that ordinary yet complex and sometimes frightening transition from waking reality to the land of Nod.          Sweet Dreams will amuse, delight, intrigue, and above all soothe children of all ages before sleep.  It's soothing for adults, too, since all of us do, indeed, sleep.
