Poetry is life burning on the page. —Leonard Cohen This eclectic collection by Australian poet, Gwenda Steff, evokes emotional and sensory imagery through a diverse range of poetic forms. It is a window into the heart and soul of experiences, of beauty, of wildlife, of memory—and of a daily working life. It explores experiences of love, joy, humour, work, family—and of loss and protracted grief. It also confronts some of the issues of ecological and climatic destruction.
