Circle of Light
Charles Levendosky
Levendosky’s poems invite us to step into a circle of light which illuminates
our way
and strips away the insignificant from a world of confusion, complications,
and darkness.
Charles Levendosky's book of poetry has been called both "wise" and "profound" in its look at relationships, both human and with the land. He invites us to step into a circle of light which illuminates and strips away the insignificant from a world of confusion and darkness.
Levendosky was Wyoming's second poet laureate. His newspaper columns were carried by the New York Times wire service and appeared in newspapers across the country.
“Charles Levendosky illuminates our losses, retreats, hurry and needs
in Circle of Light. He examines the detachment and distraction that can leave
some with as small a personal world as fits ‘into a rearview mirror.’ He
romances the ‘quiet merging of lovers’ when the boundaries of flesh
are left behind,’ of the gift to ‘never be alone, never be empty
again.’ Levendosky’s 10th collection of poetry serves up pithy
introspection and mature observations of daily adult life with an appealing
ease.”

“This poetry…is so accessible, so softly
alluring in its presentation, yet so powerful in its message…passionate,
political, profound.”
