New-Found Land (eBook, ePUB)

Poems of Discovery and Diversion

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

If poetry has a soul, it might be metaphor, since metaphor transforms and enlivens even our most common objects and experiences. In this latest poetic excursion by Raymond Haan, you will find many common objects, among them garbage cans, a mole, a dune ride, Oliver the dog, a door and hinge, a needle, a raspberry, and a trapped raccoon. For the author, each of these bits of common terrain transforms into a new-found land, a fresh and less tangible territory that invites a bit of exploration and offers some joy of discovery.

Autorenporträt

Raymond H. Haan attended Calvin College and the University of Michigan. He happily survived thirty-nine years as a teacher of English, simultaneously pursuing his passion for church music by serving as organist and director of music and by publishing much choral, organ, and instrumental music for worship. Since retiring from teaching and active music-making, he has written a light-hearted book of serious grammar instruction, has produced miscellaneous prose, and has written a good helping of poetry, including Singing the Gamut, Word Songs and Whimsies, Alphabetical Frolic, and The Unfathomable Theology of Fishing, published by Wipf and Stock. He lives in Cutlerville, Michigan, within a few miles of his four children and a goodly quiverfull of grandchildren.
