Bücher von Mick Yates

 ‘The Blue Hour is a period of morning and evening twilight when  the sun is below the horizon colouring the sky a deep blue. The poems   in this enchanting and magical collection reflect upon the mysteries, the joys and the       sorrows of human existence from both a personal and a universal perspective.  It is a journey that we all share in common, and these are poems that chart our shared       experience from dawn to sunset in a celebratory and life-affirming way.’  ‘His work is breathtaking, so very human and accessible’- Heidi Nightengale, Publisher & Editor at Clare Songbirds Publishing House‘In the real way of a conversation that starts light and then dives deep Yates draws us into topics of life and death, our connectedness to the earth, the wonder of the ocean, our past. He surprises with some spectacular unexpected endings. Poems with what I have called‘Slap upside the head’ last lines. Each a gem, shining stone or shell shard gleaned from       a winter beach during the long wait for spring. Collect one yourself.’- Rachael Z. Ikins, Associate Editor, Clare Songbirds Publishing House.
