Shadows of Dawn:  A Poetic Revelation-Renaissance

Shadows of Dawn: A Poetic Revelation-Renaissance

ByEmanuel Yarbrough

Shadows of Dawn is a compilation of mostly Romantic poetry in the tradition of Wordsworth, Coleridge, Keats, and Poe. This poetry covers a variety of themes, such as love and loss, faith in Christ, joy and sorrow, and life and death. Within this collection of poetry, the cautious and deliberately speculative reader will note at all the times the dominating current of the author's faith in Christ, even when the poetry is at its darkest and most melancholy. Thematically predominate in any script of a true believer will always be the dark undercurrent of questions of faith, almost literally a dreadful cycle of “Paradise Lost” and “Paradise Regained” within his mind and heart. It is hoped that these paintings in words, these experiences captured in a bottle, so to speak, will find a place in the hearts, lives, and experiences of readers everywhere. Perhaps it can better be said by the concluding lines of "Oh For a Tender Ear:" “Most noble desires---fears,/ Existence, lend me your tears."
