By Alan Ireland. Paperback, 43 pages. Pukeko Press, 2017.

This is my first published collection of poems. Most of the poems have already appeared in literary magazines and online publications.

"You most definitely have a poet's eye and poet's sense of pared-down, effective and honed language. And something better than that: an original way of looking at things, a capacity for thought and consideration..." — Elizabeth Smither
