"A precious gem to treasure and keep-these poems follow a meandering journey of the soul; delicate and thought provoking observations from life weaving stories of laughter, love, passion and healing all the way through." - Maria Grachvogel, dress designer "A great book that everyone will want to read. It would be a crime not to own a copy!" - Brigid Gordon, Director, Partners In Crime Thriller Book Club Volumes of poetry nowadays frequently offer dark, tortured and twisted images and call that "the real world." The collection of poems found in Eternal Sparrow offers something quite different. They are a celebration of the beauty and the fun of life. They bask in the glorious presence of the natural world. They embrace the notion that the "real world" is what you make it and manifest that belief in rich, expressive language. With a love of language and of life, the poems of prize-winning author Ingrid Collins are communicative, accessible and entertaining. Drawing from the traditional poetry forms of many nations and masterfully illustrated by artist Giovanna Cellini, the Eternal Sparrow of the title is a metaphor for the power of poetry and love to erase time and distance, touching your imagination and warming your heart now. Ingrid brings her passion for poetry to life with an absorbing collection of breathtaking beauty, heartfelt emotion and delicious nonsense.
