Inhaltsangabe

On a Fair Wind is Ruth Guillard's second book of her poetry, the first being From Burnham Cove published in 2012. The author writes of the sea, the fields and forests, from a real need of these natural surroundings. In balance, her poems about our human condition are directly engaging, whether from the heart, or wry and philosophical. There are also poems describing deep and subtle inner experiences. It is worth making room for some quiet moments to dive into these collections.

She lives with her husband in an 1820 farmhouse in Boothbay, Maine. The family consists of three sons, five grandchildren and a succession of shelter dogs.
