When Dusk Hoots by Felix Bongjoh, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

The poet continues to draw his imagery from his familiar surroundings, from human behavior and interaction, from key elements in nature, including the skies and water and from flora and fauna alike. The bright side of life with hope as a dominant theme is reflected throughout the poems. No matter how complex, how conflicting, how intriguing or how hostile relations may sometimes appear to be-which underlie life's leitmotif-a strong undercurrent of love essentially drives the cadenced rhythm of the verse. The beauty of the poems derives from chiaroscuro, the literary technique of balancing shade and light, gloom and hope to achieve balance as the basis for the poems' natural flow from a hooting dusk to a bright dawn of eternal life and human aspirations. | When Dusk Hoots by Felix Bongjoh, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
