If you are reading Jean Syed for the first time, prepare to become addicted. She’s a poetry magician with a twinkle in her eye and a wand which arranges words in an unforeseen, yet enchanting way. She writes with deep concern for the natural world including humankind and all our follies. Her original language, unique imagery and precise meter and rhyme treat us to verse which is indeed miraculous.
~ Jerry Judge, author of Luna Moth and Night Talk in the Barracks
In Jean Syed's lyric poems of the seasons, she celebrates images like the flowers one may see in the garden or from the window, the sound of cicadas, the life / death cycles of snake and bird. There is sure formal control in “A Response to Robert Herrick” and sly humor in “Morte de Mouse.” These poems are pleasure for the reader.
~ Amy Jo Schoonover, poet, teacher, editor, and author of Greatest Hits (Pudding House) and Certain One Way or Another (Finishing Line)
