Synopsis

‘The day is silent, windless,
white mist rolling in ~
we are blind beyond our fingertips,
but birds still sing.’

 

‘A luminous collection that pulses with emotional intensity and lyrical grace … [the] images linger, each poem a meditation on the ache of memory and the persistence of beauty.' The International Review of Books.

 

‘A beautifully crafted collection’ Goodreads reviewer

 

‘Absolutely beautiful’ Goodreads reviewer 

 

‘Deeply moving’ NetGalley reviewer 

 

Following the publication of Bright Dust, Jane Lightbourne's second poetry collection, Light Beneath The Lids, is out now.

 

Some poems celebrate love in its varied forms, exploring the joy and darkness that romantic love brings, while others are inspired by the force and beauty of the natural world. The frailty of the human condition is always at the forefront of the poet's consciousness, but with a focus always on light and hope amid the darkness.
