The Light Of Day (II)

By Jonathan Finch

"The Light Of Day (II)" is the second in a series. Prize-winning poet and published short-story writer and translator Jonathan Finch has collected these poems he put away over the years. His published work can be seen in "Poems People Liked (1)" and "Poems People Liked (2)". More of his previously unpublished poems are here, in "The Light Of Day (II)". Because of Kindle Direct Publishing and Createspace these poems have been able to see the light of day. Poetry was Finch's passion, and over the decades he wrote hundreds of poems. Many were published in literary magazines and anthologies by editors who admired his muse but even more remained unpublished. (Finch used to write one or two poems a day.) The internet revolution has enabled him to publish these poems which languished in darkness and longed for sunshine and for their light of day. Consistently given four and five stars by reviewers, Finch's style has been compared to Dickens', and recently David Wright wrote: "In a hundred years, scholars won't be studying bestselling thrillers to measure the pulse of our generation. But they might be studying Finch."The verse in this collection varies from metrical with rhyme to free verse, some of the latter experimental. The subjects are love, nature, guilt, suicide, death, the after-life, dysfunctional families, and more, but beyond the obvious, Finch strives to create beauty and order chaos.
