Donald Junkins, a former professor at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and Director of the Master of Fine Arts program in English, offers seventy-five poems presented in a lyrical, resonant voice. Junkins includes original poetry and works previously published in such journals as \u003ci\u003eThe New Yorker, The Virginia Quarterly Review, \u003c\/i\u003e and the two-volume anthology \u003ci\u003eContemporary New England Poetry.\u003c\/i\u003e With a polished style, Junkins illustrates daily life for the 350 year-round inhabitants who orchestrate their lives around the tides, nightly winds, lobstering, fog, and late summer rains. In a world where the natural ebb and flow of nature dictates everyday life, Junkins offers an exquisite collection of poetry reminiscent of a time gone by. \u003ci\u003eOn this late morning in late June two yellow butterflies traverse the beach peas where the seawall begins.
