About this listen

“The Light Of Day (II)” is the second in a series. Prize-winning poet and published short-story writer and translator Jonathan Finch has collected these poems he put away over the years. His published work can be seen in “Poems People Liked (1)” and “Poems People Liked (2)”. More of his previously unpublished poems are here, in “The Light Of Day (II)”. Because of Kindle Direct Publishing and Createspace these poems have been able to see the light of day. Poetry was Finch’s passion, and over the decades he wrote hundreds of poems. Many were published in literary magazines and anthologies by editors who admired his muse but even more remained unpublished. (Finch used to write one or two poems a day.) The internet revolution has enabled him to publish these poems which languished in darkness and longed for sunshine and for their light of day. Consistently given four and five stars by reviewers, Finch’s style has been compared to Dickens’, and recently David Wright wrote: “In a hundred years, scholars won’t be studying bestselling thrillers to measure the pulse of our generation. But they might be studying Finch.” The poems in this collection vary from metrically correct with rhyme to free verse with experimental effects but overall Finch strives for verbal beauty and for order. The subjects are various and include love, suicide, loss, family dilemmas, nature (especially ornithology), wild characters and more. A number of poems concentrate on two women who still hold the poet's heart - Anne and Kathy - and though they belong to the poet's past, they still live in the verse published here today.
