This resonating collection of poems by Clayton Bye takes you into the deepest stirrings of the psyche. It plumbs a true fathom of passion, yearning, and acute self-discernment, from the center of the Self. The soul’s quest, its essence responding to the visceral reality–the joyous, the lovely, as well as the ugly–this is the journey upon which you will embark within these pages. –D. L. Keur

Here are some wonderful excerpts:

A Hole in the Clouds

radiant beams
a hole in the clouds
gossamer strands
speak out loud
warmed heart
a child’s eyes aglow
soul is livened
I drive slow

Loss

A crystal passage from here to there
but no light with which to see.
“So what?” he asks with bitterness,
that door is closed to me.

_

Found

Secret longings, mind burnt,
now loosed from my soul,
are sweet knives outward slicing,
hostbound on the wind;
Diamond ice, time-picked clean,
will melt asunder,
a heart met in morning hours,
her dark eyes of joy.
