Whispers from Nova Scotia: Stories in Poetry

By: Manzer, Bernard W.

I must be off to the sea again
Where the waves are rolling high,
To feel the wind against my cheek
As it scatters the spray in the sky.

Whispers of Nova Scotia is a collection of Bernard W. Manzer's verse, capturing his love for his native Nova Scotia as well as his thoughts and feelings about nature, history, and the many lessons of a long life. In this varied collection, meditations on life and death rub shoulders with playful poems about Jack Frost and water drops, as well as poems that ring with praise and gratitude. Written in the 1970s, they remain as relevant today as ever.

In calm or storm, what does it matter?
As long as I am on the water.
When I die, I hope I'll be
Riding the briny waves and buried at sea.
