A selection from fifty years of Merrill Gilfillan''s lyrical and vivid poetry

Wistful, joyful, resonant with "Season through place, / Place in season, in place," the hundred various poemslandscapes, epistles, "tunes meant for whistling"are propelled throughout by affinity, reflection, and requital.
