A dawn light glows over Choir of Day, this generous selection of new poems, and work drawn from each of Robert K. Johnson's many previous books. Here are poems of literal dawn and the birdsong that accompanies it. Here also is a more metaphorical light, one that emanates from these poems and their capacity to refresh our vision, to renew our sense of love and relationship, and to face without flinching the inevitable losses and painful truths of our lives. Let us give thanks for this dawn chorus. - Fred Marchant, Author of The Looking House
