5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful poems!, May 29, 2004

Anita Brenner "anita_b" (La Canada Flintridge, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Trapeze: Poems (Hardcover)
The subject of these poems is the death of Digges' husband, from cancer.

The poems are lyrical and honest.

The title poem, is stunning --- "Trapeze" (..."O, the dying are such acrobats. Here you must take a boat from one day to the next, or clutch the girders of the bridge, hand over hand. But they are sailing like a pendulum between eternity and evening...").

Also, "Greeter of Souls" ("...Can I not be a greeter of souls...on which side of the river should I wait?")

Digges asks all the questions that the bereaved will ask. These are lovely poems.
