Clocks And Crows

by Ronald Ray

Overview

'Clocks And Crows' is a collection of 128 of my poems. Many deal with grief and loss, but there is also a bit of the surreal and whimsical. I hope that these words might help others who have lost loved ones who may not be able to voice their feelings.

About the Author

I began writing seriously when my wife was diagnosed with a terminal illness four years ago. It helped me get through her death 2 1/2 years ago, and I've been writing ever since. My work has been well-received. I've been published at Wordsmiths magazine and have self-published two other books. I'm also a visual artist, and a long time member of deviantart.com (bark.deviantart.com)

Editorial Reviews

Mr. Ray’s work is solid, and bordering on relentless in it’s imagery of death and surviving loss. Short poems such as ‘Lawnmower Man’ and ‘Ponytail’ tell us as much as we need to know about the loss of a loved one. Mr. Ray’s longer poems paint pictures of dream states, dark worlds and songs for the dead. This book of poetry is truly a labor of love speaking to our mortality and fragile state of being.
