Trumpeter swans introduce the music of these sonnets by Betsy Hughes.
Her subjects range from contemporary events to the timeless universal truths of love and death
in poems that travel from river wetlands of Minnesota to Notre Dame Cathedral of Paris.
Her themes explore nature and human nature, exterior and interior worlds,
visual and literary arts, ecology and sociology.
In this little book of original verse, Betsy Hughes, a modern sonneteer, exhibits the beauty and balance of classical sonnets -- their marriage of discipline with freedom, sound with sense.
