The poems contained within Beyond the Parasol were all written in the period between September 2003 and May 2004. Originally I didn't intend to publish them; mainly because of their autobiographical nature (particularly the ones from 'Ten Minutes Only.') However, the book quickly seemed to shape itself and I thought I'd share the collection with a wider audience.
The symbols and images I use tend to harness nature, the sea and observations of everyday people. I have tried to allow each poem to live in its language, using the imagery as a starting point.
The title poem opens with a series of pictures, which expand as the poem develops until it disappears into its final line:
'Beyond. Beyond the parasol'.
This line sets the scene for the entire collection. Mysteriously absorbing, it reminds us that there is a lot to be discovered in the changing world beyond the four walls we may live in - or, in the case of this poem, beyond the parasol in my own East-End back garden.
My hope with this book is that it will be enjoyed and understood by the reader at whatever level. Much contemporary poetry can be pretentious and superficial. I believe this is not the case with this collection. I would like to think that the reader is taken on a journey around the many different aspects of life explored here.
The poems are not just full of meaning. They are being themselves.
Mysteriously absorbing, Stephen Leake's poems take you on a journey around the many different aspects of life.
From 'Artifice,' to the almost eerie title poem we are confronted with a wealth of intense writing. These poems are not just full of meaning. They are being themselves...
