Reflections: In Our Time II

by Donald J. Young

Donald Youngs poems are tight and loose at the same timethe reader can move within themand the reader will feel strongly the concern, the emotion, the flow that carries the words along. There is color, music and a wonderful reliance on imagery that makes the poems a joy to read and reread.But what gives the poems their energy and depth is the feeling of necessity that underlies each poemthere is an idea or passion or both) which strongly compels it utterance. The poems are journeys toward revelation or satori (sudden illumination).In many cases, the poems push us beyond what we could ever anticipate. Herein lies the pleasure. We leave Donald youngs poems enlightened, deepened and thankful for the keen eye and compassionate heart.
