Synopsis
Excerpt from Killantringan and Other Poems
Washing upon a mystic Shore While strange sea voices evermore Chanted old psalms unto my soul, Of frail Mortality's joy and dole Of Life as it teems in sea, on land, Changing God's coin into golden sand, Sanded ore into burnished gold, Changing and changing by oceans rolled. And a myriad voices played for me A magical, musical melody Sounds rising sweetly to Silent stars, Or floating away with strange moans and To the ether that Winds about the earth Like a veil of gauze. O, joyous Mirth Therein was never a place for thee Thou wert lost like tears in a Rhapsody.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a profound exploration of humanity's enduring relationship with the sea, as witnessed by the author through personal experiences and observations. From tranquil shores to tempestuous waves, the author captures the ocean's grandeur and its power to both inspire and terrify. The sea is presented not merely as a backdrop, but as a living, breathing entity that interacts with the lives of those who sail upon it, live beside it, or simply gaze upon its vast expanse. The book is rich in evocative imagery and lyrical prose, immersing readers in the sights, sounds, and scents of the coastal world. Through the author's keen eye, we witness the beauty of seabirds in flight, the rhythm of the tides, and the resilience of those who make their living from the sea. Beyond its poetic qualities, the book also delves into the deeper meanings and mysteries that humans have always associated with the sea. It explores themes of longing, loss, and the search for purpose amidst the vastness of the ocean. The author draws upon mythology, history, and personal anecdotes to illuminate the ways in which the sea has shaped cultures and influenced human consciousness. Ultimately, this book is an invitation to reconnect with the sea, to appreciate its beauty, and to contemplate the profound impact it has had on our lives. Through its insightful observations and evocative language, the book offers a fresh perspective on the enduring relationship between humanity and the sea, reminding us of its power to inspire awe, wonder, and reflection.
