First Edition. INCLUDES CD of book with amusing introductory comments by Jim Hayes. 8vo. Cloth binding, 149 pp. Illustrated throughout in black and white by Janet Kenny. From the "Throughout my life, while admiring all forms of poetry, I have always reserved my special affection for those forms of the art known collectively as Light Verse. Verse that is cheery and light. Light in the sense of cheerful, airy, light-footed and light-hearted. Verse, if you will, that requires little mental effort on the reader's part, but which disguises the stringent demands it makes on the writer's technique." From the review of Edmund "What kind of poetry can you expect from an Irishman who has been a wheelbarrow maker, a draughtsman, a fly fisherman and a rare chess book auctioneer? You might be surprised. Or you might not be if you also knew he won the prestigious Willard R. Espy Foundation award for light verse and in addition was a featured poetry in Light Quarterly. In any event, be prepared for topics ranging from the aerodynamics of falling cats to braille messages left via bullet holes. Just be ready to laugh. Out loud. Jim Hayes is a master craftsman who writes genuinely funny poems. Genuine. And funny." With wonderful CD of Jim Hayes reading and commenting on the entire book.
