E-BOOK
OPENING by Deborah Fielding is a collection of thoughts, questions, prayers and poems all written since the COVID-19 pandemic hit the UK in March 2020.
From the back cover:
Words are all we’ve got
to make sense of our stories.
So please be patient.

During 2020 and 2021 I put ideas, questions and reflections onto paper to try and make sense of them. When I open a collection, I always skip to the shortest poems or stories. In this book, that’s impossible, because all the poems are very short. I am yet to learn how to write a traditional haiku, but these poems do all follow the seventeen-syllable form, sometimes called Modern Haiku.
As important as the words on a page, is the space.
There is plenty of space on the pages. For you.
