Sinopsis

In "October, and Other Poems," Robert Bridges elegantly captures the transient beauty of nature through his nuanced observations and lyrical style. This collection, steeped in the Victorian tradition, employs vivid imagery and resonant sound patterns to explore themes of change, mortality, and the interconnectedness of life. Bridges'Äô mastery of rhythm and meter brings each poem to life, inviting readers to experience the fleeting moments of beauty that define the autumn season, while also reflecting on the broader human experience. The poems echo the Romantic ethos yet are distinct in their meticulous attention to detail and natural phenomena, resonating with the contemporary concerns of the time. Robert Bridges, appointed Poet Laureate of the United Kingdom in 1913, embedded his personal experiences and scholarly pursuits in his poetry. His background in medicine, coupled with a deep appreciation for nature, fostered a unique sensitivity towards the organic world. His commitment to poetic form and innovative style can be traced to his fascination with both the classics and the emerging modernist movements, allowing him to carve out a niche that is distinctly his own. "October, and Other Poems" is a compelling read for those who appreciate the confluence of beauty and introspection. Readers who seek a deeper understanding of nature through the lens of poetic expression will find Bridges'Äô work to be both illuminating and poignant. This collection serves as a timeless reminder of the exquisite transitions that define our existence, making it an essential addition to any literary repertoire.

    In Perdido, Elaine Terranova' s seventh collection, the poet ponders the predicament of loss— " I want the dead but I am beside / the living." But for Terranova, perdido does not mean loss merely. Like the music from which she borrows her term, these poems bound with resilience.

    This poetry book is for those who are ready to step fully into themselves, and their divine feminine energy. 
    Now is the time 
    For the Goddess to rise 
    To help us dissolve 
    All the lies 
    All the things 
    That we've been told 
    That have influenced us 
    As we grow old 
    It's time for you 
    To make the choice 
    To heed the wisdom 
    Of your inner voice 
    It will call to you 
    In times of change 
    But this is the way 
    Your life will arrange 
    So that you can claim 
    The Goddess within 
    Find your truth 
    And what you believe in 
    This channeled poetry book was inspired by the rising feminine energy on the planet at this time. 
    If it’s time to claim your inner goddess, let Gaia Rise Of The Goddess connect you back with the heartbeat of mother earth!

    Anyone who has visited Sedona, in the high desert of Arizona, will know that it is one of the most beautiful townships in the world. I am fortunate to live there. My home is nestled midst spectacular scenery, with views of red rocks and ancient vortexes. It is the perfect environment to inspire a poet, and hence the title of this book, Desert of Inspiration. Many of these poems were written while I was out on my daily hikes. 
    The poems are in the exact chronological order that they were written. I averaged writing more than one poem a week over a two year period. You can follow my path of inspiration and imagination during this time. I take you through the four seasons of each year. You will find deep, thoughtful poems; poems of fantasy, and humorous poems, as you explore my magical world. I am a professional magician, but also have a strong connection with the magic and miracles of nature. I was born in Northumberland, England, the son of an Anglican clergyman. As a child, I lived in vicarages with large gardens, and always enjoyed outside activities such as climbing trees, playing amongst wildflowers, and creating rock gardens. I felt my spirit was in tune with Mother Earth and the elementals. During these early years, I was also performing magic tricks and writing poetry. 
    The last two poems were written in March 2020, when planet Earth was in a turbulent time with the pandemic known as COVID-19. How this was all going to play out was unclear when the book was published, but we were certainly going through times of great change. I am hopeful that many good lessons were learned by humanity from this experience. There are powerful, positive, and profound messages hidden within these chapters. By inviting my listeners to look inward, I hope to make them see their true light, where there often appears to be only darkness and shadows. Enjoy the journey!

    Quietly reflective, the beautifully written poems in this slim volume offer a welcome respite from the noisy insistence of modern life. The language, now simple and direct, now rich in associations, double-meanings, and imagery, has its own natural rhythm and appeal regardless of subject and rhyme. Intriguing, absorbing, thought-provoking, the poems are innovative and fresh and the intensity of the verses in places will undoubtedly strike a chord with readers of all kinds - both established readers of poetry, those who read poetry now and again, and those 
    turning to poetry for the first time. Largely relating one person's take on how it is to be in the world, the poems address such aspects of life as time, being, loss, culture, and contingency. The collection is divided into three sections - non-rhyming poems, rhyming poems, and a 
    concluding section of lighter, more humorous verses, with each of two additional poems serving as foreword and afterword.
