About the Book

They said "that can't be a poem
For it has neither rhyme nor rhythm"
Well if that's what they want me to show 'em
Then that's exactly what I'll give 'em

And Stewart McKenzie does give in this collection of poems about landscapes, genes, time, and the nature of poetry. When these poems were posted on poemhunter.com a fellow poet commented "I have begun reading Stewart's poems this morning and find a series of gems no poet lover should miss. His writing is full of lovely images and thought-provoking ideas".
