PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Thirty-nine original poems, many accompanied by line drawings. For all ages. FROM THE INSIDE FLAP How take the measure of delight? By what authority do those who hold its value slight assay its quality? Like feathers in an angel's wing the smallest joy may give, even to life's renunciate, this one commandment - live! These poems are alive with delight in the small, the obscure, joys of the everyday world. As poetry should, they make us see what we do not see, and love what we have too often ignored. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Victoria Forrester lives north of San Francisco on the California coast. Of her first book of poetry, Lee Bennett Hopkins wrote, "Just last year a small gem of a collection appeared, Words to Keep Against the Night. It is always an exciting event to see a new poet born."
