Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Morning Songs in the Night: Poems Within these covers is to be found one of the most notable volumes of verse recently published in Canada, because probably no other deals so intensely yet simply with the everyday problems of the soul and of suffering humanity. The author, Walter A. Ratcliffe, of Listowel, Ontario, has for years been cut off from the ordinary pleasures of life by an unusually heavy affliction - having become almost totally blind and deaf. His only communication with his few friends has been through the ear trumpet and the sympathetic touch and treatment. In the sadness of his life his poetry has been to him a solace and an unburdening, and we catch the heart-throbs in the singing of the caged linnet: "If I should die to-night No terror would affright; No quailing at the billows´ ceaseless boom, No boding fear of boundless, rayless gloom, And chill and damp of night. But when the last warm light Of life, a burned-out candle´s glow, Shines o´er the fleeted years, what would it show, If I should die to-night?"
