Amethysts and Emeralds

Om Amethysts and Emeralds

Amethysts and Emeralds is a selection of Daniel King's awardwinning poetry, much of which has been published in journals around the world. The poems embrace a wide variety of forms, from free verse to sonnet, roundel, villanelle, and sestina. Thematically, too, the poems are very varied, ranging from the realist "Head in the Sand", published in the prestigious London Magazine, to a song lyric from Shadows of 1876: The Wild Birds have Returned, a CD of mystical country music songs about historical fi gures and events from the United States in the year 1876. Most of the poems, however, are of a religious and/ or mystical theme: indeed, a large subset of the poems concerns the genesis and future life of Kalki, the tenth and final avatar of the Hindu God Vishnu (the Preserver), incarnating this time and forever together with Shiva (the Destroyer).
