description: Gillian Ferguson's poems draw on her intense but dislocated encounters with the natural world to interpret a variety of subjects. A city-dweller, but also a wildlife artist, her imagination is rooted in the country, using a painter's palette of vivid, unexpected color and her own personal yet unsentimental symbolism of flowers. Nature is the root for her powerful love poems as well as for poems which capture a significant fragment of memory or find the mythical within the ordinary.
