BEYOND THIS DIVIDE

 

Songs of the Cherubim

Call us, green islands

Beckon us, but once heart

Hears, itā€™s as if

Weā€™ve been orphaned, lost

 

To that grey rock and

Lucid wave, shadowy with

Saffron fish,

 

Where great turtles clamber

Down beaches and are

Sure of tomorrow.

 ...his large body of poetry is extremely various. It is a witty poetry, crafted in many different forms, drawing on a large vocabulary, scientific as well as social and religious, playful and at times, as in ā€˜Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Hooverā€™, funny.
