Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anthony Taylor's poems and songs offer a range of topics and emotions as varied as life itself - from the warm-hearted humour of The Hugging Song and the playful but touching romanticism of I'd Like To Be The Morning Sun to the despairing voices of Russian Roulette and Commuter's Lament; from the tenderness of Dream Of Me Tonight to the indictments of war in First Moustache and Gorillas Hearing Gunfire; from celebrations of natural beauty in Winter Sun Over Aberystwyth and Samothrace to the grief of The Daffodils Outside My Mother's Window and Skeleton House; from the joyful assurance of Sailboats In The Sky to the ominous note sounded in Dead Hedgehog; from the contentment of Canals to the sad solitariness of Alone Eighty and Missing. In between, the verse takes in such diverse subjects as music, summers and sand, commuting, snow, rugby, busking, faith, cruelty to animals and world conflict and peace. Through all there shines a love of and concern for life and living things.
