Our poem this week was chosen
by Helen Lowe: 'The quiet life at Glenfinnan (1877, Runs 458/468)' by fellow
Christchurch poet Robynanne Milford. This poem, which represents the life of
one Mrs MacPherson, a pioneering woman, is from Robyanne's new collection Aspiring
Light (Pukeko Publications), which was launched on Sunday.
As Helen
says: 'The focus of Aspiring Lightis on the Wanaka area of Otago.
In particular, the poems highlight "characters who shaped, explored, named
and pioneered the area" throughout its history.'
