Give yourself the gift of this book By David Stansfield In these gentle, delicate poems, Barbara Burgess is trying to do something extremely difficult: to find words for the ineffable, for the truths that are beyond words. As she puts it: to catch “light in the wind,” to paint “upon the canvas of imagination” and stop “the feeble arms of Time.” The astonishing thing is that in many of these lovely verses Barbara actually does become very close to achieving the apparently impossible task of expressing the inexpressible.I was moved by all the poems in this wonderful collection, but perhaps my favorite was “Amid the Chaos,” recounting what went through the poet's mind when she was sitting beside her mother’s hospital bed. Here are three extracts from that poem, the first from the beginning, and the second and third from the end:Amid the chaos caused by the polar vortexThat struck Montreal last winter,We sat together in the space beyond words…I felt her feet were cold, and so gently massaged them with my hands.She liked that, it brought warmth.I felt her feet push against my palms, and I saw the cycle—The same woman whom I called my elderly motherAnd whose aged, earth-worn toes pushed against my palms,She, as an infant with tiny feet, had playfully pushed against the hands of her own motherWho’d cradled and welcomed her on Earth…And as her mother was with her at her arrival,I was honoured to have come and be a guardian to the oneWho was my guardian and my gateway to this earth.We both stood at the departure gates. Mine was for a distant land.Hers, to send her only deeper into our hearts.Be kind to your soul. As Barbara puts it,You came as a giftOf light in the wind…Now give yourself the gift of this book.

But how do we utter the unutterable, the unknown? When we come into revelation how are we to communicate this to others? The writer's desire is to do just this. And when we return from the high place of revelation are we the same creatures we were or are we changed forever? "Our wings are touched with fire" and we are some other creature, perhaps of the air. And can we speak ordinary 'human' language any more? Maintaining a consistent voice throughout the collection Barbara Burgess masterfully leads us into this reality; the innermost and the truest. There is more, about life's freedom, loss, incarnate creativity, but to tell it is impossible: To tell of a reality that is so hard to express, maybe that just proves that one has to read the poetry itself to go there. What greater gift of the artist to us, is the gift of the ability to look into our brother's eyes and see the vision of Love behind them (from one poem of the collection, "Amid the Chaos") This is the gift of "Light in the Wind".

It is gentle, like a gossamer thread that weaves its way through loss and suffering, into joy and expectation. It's a short read, but it doesn't need more length. Powerful, evocative and deeply kind, Light in the Wind wrestles with the deepest longings of the soul and reaches to the peaks of human experience. One for the small bookshelf where you keep the ones that brighten the way.
