Infos

This is the latest book in a series that began in the late 1990s.Throughout this sequence, there has been a movement away from the personaland confessional to cultural and social observations. The first section, sharing is a representative selection. Then follows a Lamma legacy, a tribute to the people of Lamma in Hong Kong,where I was declared poet laurette. Lamma Island was a microcosm,as was Hong Kong itself. This focus on belonging and cultural identity continues. A later section explores how a variety of nations have established national myths, part of the moving mosaic of global culture.We share in this, as we share in the beauty of the world, as expressed in the finalphase of the past is present. Over this series, the ideals have deepened and mellowed,reflecting a shift towards universal consciousness, perhaps a global awakening.I hope you share in this dream! The past is present and divine,each breath a whisper always thine,the distillation of our dreams,essencing truth in all that seems.
