Description

The Terebinth Tree, a healing tree, was sacred to the ancient Persians and Walmsley's fourth collection explores this symbolism and takes it further. In doing so, his poems range through conventional form and lyric voice to provocative fragments and flashes of intuitive and haunting disparate images. Philosophical, reflective fragments lie side by side with poems of stark realism and social import. Walmsley is adept with the multi-faceted aspects of human endeavor, from world issues to philosophical and mystical reflection. This is a moving and thought-provoking collection.
