Synopsis

The Laughing Dove and Other Poems is a collection that celebrates the natural world and our delicate place at the very edge of wilderness. Vernon RL Head sees like a birdwatcher and his unique arrangements of words shape a wondrous fact: Nature waits in the everyday: the freshness of a pavement-city-tree; the smoothness of a rock in a stream of pain; the holes and hopes between the planted flowers of a garden; the thorns of light that make the Karoo; the sea and its need to find the land.
