    Author Jane Lightbourne
    “Book Descriptions: 'We met too soon, some said, and now you are gone, and I am looking at the dawn of a thousand tomorrows, still holding onto yesterday’s sun.’

    Bright Dust is author Jane Lightbourne’s first poetry collection from publisher Nevada Street Press (WINNER - BEST EMERGING INDEPENDENT PUBLISHER 2024 - UK ENTERPRISE AWARDS 2024).

    Reminiscent of the work of early 20th century imagist poets, the poems celebrate all forms of love, from desire to treachery and betrayal, from love as destroyer to love’s destruction and loss, the consolations of domestic love, and finally to the ultimate solace found in the force and beauty of the natural world, and the peace that comes from an acceptance of our place within it.

    Readers are invited to contemplate the intricacies of human experience through carefully written, poignant verses that are brief, evocative, and thought-provoking.
