The mounted star-pointed kite danced and sang,

but not with the freedom of the peregrine falcon

tied to no human hand.


This collection of poetry is a rich grounding into the various experiences of growing up in a village setting in Guyana. Here's the magic of poetry that brings memories of long forgotten days, and in a way that's refreshing and lively, and also amusing.


The language, style, and imagery are simple and engaging. The reader can easily relate to the vivid descriptions gleaned from the scenes of the local village, and the unspoiled, ravishing beauty of the hinterland that beckons all to this beautiful land.


There can be no greater gift to the young, whether in Guyana or in the diaspora. And it's a refreshing and stimulating read for every adult to reminisce on those cherished experiences that still find a place in the heart.


A vital aspect of our cultural independence relates to literature that speaks of our natural environment, our local experiences, the ordinary folks, and the folklore of this blessed land. Such literature can leave an indelible impression on our youths and inspire them to embark on the wonderful journey of reading and writing poetry. This collection of poems represents a valuable addition to such literature.
