Robert Arthur's poems and plays will put readers in vivid contact with his Chesapeake shores and its striking voices. He has an excellent ear for the natural cadences and stories that suffuse the air, sea and the land itself, from the mewing of gulls to "where the wind has taken drops of rain in filmy satchels to the whispering corn." Brought up on the Eastern Shore of the Chesapeake Bay, he is proficient in the common speech of the place. When, in his poems, he says, "Hey lookit here," readers are treated to a remembered cluster of old folks, sipping lemonade or tea on the porch and telling tales about their neighbors, old country people who'd "shout to everybody/ like 'em or not."
