Into the Milkweed Meadow

Into the Milkweed Meadow is another stunning collection of poems by Canadian author, Don Gutteridge. This fine collection is an ode to nature, love, time, and the complex nuance of oft-overlooked emotions, this soft-spoken collection is magnificent in its quiet confidence. The collection is generously sprinkled with vivid and startling turns-of-phrase throughout. From the very first poem, Gutteridge graces readers with language like "come-summer breeze" and "lilies a-flame / in the hectic heat of a May / morning." Gutteridge is masterful with words, and the thematic explorations are playful and unpredictable, such as the naughty innocence of "Demure" or the restraint and patience displayed in "Walking, In Love." This is why Gutteridge is considered one of Canada's all-time best poets.
