Leadlights and Lanterns
by Leslie Roberts

This collection of verse ranges widely from the lyrical, through items of personal belief and feeling, to sharp social comment, with an unexpected section of whimsical drolleries, outrageous rhymes and curious narratives at the end. The poems reveal a frankness and sensitivity combined with a skill in language and versification that will appeal to the discerning reader. There is also a plethora of memorable phrases. This book is not merely to be read once but to be returned to many times over.
