Fragrant Blossoms, Fading Light

Fragrant Blossoms, Fading Light begins with a poetic treatment of desire and loss, including the desire for meaning and loss of certainties, the appreciation of beauty while recognizing impermanence, as well as the desire for peace in a time of acrimony and violence. The tone in these poems ranges from reverential, contemplative, and inspiring, to sardonic and critical of modern consumer culture; and the book concludes with a section of several touching somonka love poems. This fifth collection of poems by Don Langford presents a wide range in the style, form, and content of his poetic expression while demonstrating that his poetry remains consistently inseparable from self exploration.
