Blue Images in Sunshine

High in the blue sky, their wings transparent,

the color of sky, they fly near the sun,

sleep on the wind

Joseph Kent

In an expressive collection of contemporary poems, Joseph Kent allows others an enlightening glimpse into his mind as he lyrically reflects on the ever-changing world around him.

Kent, a seasoned poet, shares verse that explores a variety of themes that include the cloudscapes above a city seemingly out of step with the rest of the world, the friendship between a young couple on a beautiful spring day, a changed environment after a long drought ends, a wild snow goose who yearns for a mate, and a scenic walk on a magical day that inspires deep reflection about what guides the future.

Blue Images in Sunshine shares a compilation of poems that intertwine the beauty of Earth with the soul of man as he re_ ects on all there is and all there can be within a spectacular world.

The poems swirl in and out of things, always bearing a spiritual presence. [Kents] poems are hinges around which humans swing to close and open the doors of perception We come to life in these poems of greater being.
