Bird Lands, River Nights and Other Melancholies by Jose Marte M. Abueg

" ...the stippled and formally various poems that comprise this meditative collection are not really elegies, even as they do sound a beautiful lament for the world's inexorable finitude....Ultimately, at beauty's munificent behest, these poems endow us that wondrous gem of consolation: into the dim vessel of our expendable present, eternity - scintillant and never-ending water - pours and pours. Jose Neil C. Garcia, Chair, Poetry Category." - Excerpts from the Foreword.
