Opis

Description - PR Hawaii: Poems The majestic Ko`olau Mountains is the setting for Honolulu author Kathryn Waddell Takara's new collection of poetry, Pacific Raven, Hawai`i Poems, with an introduction by award-winning Maui poet, Ayin Adams. The lyrical poetry of Takara mingles the ethereal with the corporeal. Takara's poems inspire. They transcend the personal and join with the social, historical, political, philosophical and cosmic forces that touch our lives in Hawai`i and beyond. She intersects her sketches of human nature and desires, of the environment and local community with her poignant observations of Nature's fragile beauty in the Hawaiian Islands. "These sonorous poems register the ways in which growth and dwelling - being attentive and responsive to the natural, social, and political economies of one's surroundings - involve spiritual and creative movement. Takara has gathered within herself many artistic and philosophical traditions, and out of them fashioned a supple, personal and committed lyric line," writes Paul Lyons. "This is a book of Hawai`i, of its life and its land... If you've never been to Hawai`i, then come here first. It's a better introduction than anything from the Hawaii Visitors Bureau. You'll feel so at home. For Kathryn is here. Like Nefertiti, the beautiful one has come." Bill Danks "So eloquently, so masterfully she weaves and spins her poems with the sharpness of a raven's Spirit. Kathryn is without the shadow of a doubt, a poet who drank from many sources. Kathryn is a poet who submerged and emerged into the depths and spiritual richness of many cultures, creating her own brave new world of beauty. Reading throughout the book, one must pause to reflect upon the visual input, easing the mind and soul, then coming to terms with the well written work and moving on to the next poem. It is difficult to put this volume of poetry aside. Her poems are so intriguing they simply do not let you. The poems have that rare quality of absorbing you into the very heart of each one, evoking tender moments of insights, the spirituality of the author and tender bursts of umms. Kathryn Waddell Takara is a voice that deserves to read, to be heard, to be admired, to be respected. A refreshing bold, beautiful, and strong branch on the magical tree of poetry!" Ayin Adams, PhD
