Moments

Keith and Elizabeth Stanley-Mallett have once again collaborated in compiling this collection of collated verse. Although their last book, Flies Now The Spirit, was heralded as the last of their ventures, the draw to continue writing poetry proved to be irresistible to them both, especially as they still had ideas bubbling which needed to be brought to life, and as depicted in Elizabeth's poem 'Fidget Fingers', they each needed to keep their minds active on approaching their autumn years. As before, Keith presents his own take on many and varied subjects, expressing his love for nature, which is clearly evident, and giving food for thought with his individual and engaging style. Meanwhile, Elizabeth turns to nostalgia for her inspiration in several of her poems, bringing to life her recollections with a walk down memory lane, evoking pictures of halcyon days gone by. This book is a delight and will appeal to all poetry lovers, both young and old.
