Praise for Pamela Herron
"Do you appreciate lovely imagery that makes you smile? I know I do, and this lovely poetry book is chock full of it. With the “furry five o’clock shadow” of a squirrel-fur paintbrush, the poet manages to paint images for the reader that are as light as air, as the title suggests. Filled with fun surprises that brought a few chuckles, a couple smiles, and several sighs, the writer puts her work together like “Snow-covered puzzle pieces/On a sky-blue tablecloth.” And all you can feel is loveliness.
She compares human habits and behaviors to the more humble and supportive behaviors of animals, who are described as having a greater respect for single parents, and for each other. She also talks about animals that mate for life, specifically, swans and wolves, which may be some knowledge that I might have slept through in high school, but are interesting facts. Writing literature is always an opportune moment to impart knowledge, so I find these little tidbits to very charming additions."
