"The Light Of Day (I)" is the first in a series which collects poems which the published poet Jonathan Finch never submitted to editors. The poems remained in drawers and files but have now seen the light of day. Blank verse, rhymed verse, experimental poems but all with poignant themes see the light of day. An alcoholic lady, a jubilant criminal, a devious politician, the poet talking to his father about cancer and death, travel in Italy and France, love lost to the American dream...there is something here for many readers but especially for those who love poetry.
