Inhaltsangabe

Much of Mark’s poetry is meticulously crafted in a variety of classical forms of metre, structure and style. Although maintaining such forms, he is never satisfied unless the poem flows in both words and sense: in words, so that the reading or recital is smooth and un-laboured; in sense, so that the structure supports the development of the poem in its exploration of the subject. In this way, while walking in the shadows of the great classical poets, he seeks to make his poems manifestations of a particular kind of beauty.Much of Mark’s poetry is meticulously crafted in a variety of classical forms of metre, structure and style.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Mark Howitt has recently returned to writing poetry after a long fallow period. He started writing in his teens and continued through university years. After that he wrote very little for about 30 years. Then an internal dam burst and poetry has flowed from him ever since. Unusually for a poet, Mark has no literary background: he is a scientist, technologist and entrepreneur. Most weekends he loves to walk in the hills and mountains, and usually composes his poetry on such walks. His love of nature shines through many of his poems, and his love of people through most of the rest as he seeks to understand their motivations and compassionately lays bare their souls.
