Table of contents: title: This book was written while on a retreat at The Hermitage, part of the Crieff Hills Centre.; title: "The book is dotted with acute observation . . . 'A brown push mower rusted into the past', and a country lane 'filled with lilacs . . . their buds now tight and full as baby grapes.' Becky has attained in this 'chapbook' a pastoral harmony of thought and relection."; title: Jonathan Harrison, in 'For Arts Sake', The Cambridge Reporter.; title: "Becky Alexander's poetry touches the heart of whatever she writes about. Whether that is nature, people around her, or her own feelings, she has a clear eye for detail, spare and evocative language, and the sense of wonder and delight in the world that is found in good haiku.; title: Ellen Jaffe, poet and author of 'Writing Your Way: Creating a Personal Journal.'
