Lament
This restorative collection of Scottish poems will help readers and listeners to accept a loss and celebrate a life, whether at formal religious or secular ceremonies, or at quiet personal commemorative service.
Handsel
When a child is born or given a name, friends and relatives will want to wish the baby well, welcome them to the world, and find a special way of expressing their love, hope and blessings. Share these words with friends and families – touching and eloquent as a message sent with a baby gift, clear and immediate if you choose to read them aloud at a naming ceremony.
Whatever the Sea
age has drifted down / imperceptibly, like dustAge comes to us all. It is not a unique phenomenon, but it is personal, and it can be perplexing. Poetry gives us a fresh way to think about growing older, and these poems, introduced by Sally Magnusson, celebrate maturity, widen perspectives and confront the inevitable. The poets acknowledge the advent of age, in rueful or upbeat mode, celebrate the bonuses of friendship and late love, survey the weaknesses of body and mind with black humour, and face the final destination with indomitable spirit. Whatever the Sea: Scottish poems for growing older, edited by Lizzie MacGregor, is published in association with the Scottish Poetry Library and with support from the Baring Foundation. It includes poems by Edwin Morgan, Stewart Conn, Alison Prince, Douglas Dunn, Vicki Feaver and DianaHendry.
Luckenbooth
