Description
A beautifully written collection of poetry by Robin Dyke, inciting readers to engage with the profound emotions within themselves. Lasting Leaving Left explores the natural side of humanity, venturing through topics both universal and personal. Robin Dyke's lyricism shows readers the thread that connects man with nature and all things in between.The poems in this collection represent attempts to capture the image of the ideas and experiences of the moment--to explore the territory of something noticed and probe its source for meaning. Each poem emerged innocently on its own. When assembled as a collection the underlying theme of aging and departure became more evident--hence the title Lasting, Leaving, Left--aging as the art and courage of keeping the body in touch with the soul.
About the author
As business executive, consultant, and professor, Robin Dyke's work has involved the connection of people and ideas, the crafting and execution of missions and strategies. Poetry is yet a natural extension of this work of bringing attention to what we notice, imagine and can become. He and his wife live on Cordova Bay, Vancouver Island.
