This second collection of poems by David Lyle Jeffrey has two parts. In the first the primary imaginative world is biblical. How might those who witnessed the judgment of God or the miracles of Jesus first-hand have reacted to what they saw and heard? The Bible itself is typically terse, leaving gaps--but also hints--that prompt wonder. In the second part, a gathering of miscellaneous poems, are personal reflections, sometimes whimsical, on special gifts of grace received in the twilight of life.

Autorenporträt
David Lyle Jeffrey is a retired professor who, for much of his life, lived and worked in the rough highlands and marginal farm country of the upper Ottawa Valley in Canada. The author of books about historic Christianity and its influence on poetry and the visual arts, he has occasionally ventured upon uncredentialed theological reflection and, even more precariously, committed random acts of poetry.
