Synopsis   
CS Lewis once wrote, 'Great subjects do not make great poems, usually, indeed, the reverse'. Grand themes do have their place in literary works, but good poems are more often the result of carefully observed 'spots of time', to use Wordsworth's term. Being attentive to these moments in our lives, moments when we see the wonder of God's creation in the world around us, is an aptitude that gifted poets develop. They observe what many often miss, devine glory revealed in the small things of life. They realise that astute poetic observations made in stillness, and lines crafted with care, distil the essence of a special moment. Their words are meaningful. This collection contains many such poems. From uplifted eeys through a kitchen window to exotic destinations in lands far from home, from a nurtured memory to a chance encounter, these fine, individual perpsectives on wonderment are very worthy tributes to the best poetic impulses.
- Dr Peter Stiles
