Description

Inklings is divided into three sections. Part One: What Was is centred around the poet?s memories ofPoint Edward, Ontario. His opening poem, First Impression, presents a succession of images of river,lake, lilacs and maples that transports the reader to that seminal moment in time where the poet?s initialimpression of the world was formed. The poems celebrating his early life in that small town are filledwith images of boys and girls growing up together, chasing each other and the sun as they passmilestones and approach young adulthood, shimmering in the sunlight. Part Two: What Now contains acelebration of family and friends, some departed, as in Nine Years: For Potsy: In Memoriam whereGutteridge recounts the ?amber/afternoons we spent/on fairways and greens...summers at CameronLake? spent with a deceased friend. In Allure: Guelph 1960: For Anne, the contrasting visual images ofthe open-roofed VW, Anne?s lemon yellow dress glowing in the sun, red hair floating in the breeze andsky blue eyes as she rolls up to where he?s waiting paints the scene vividly and indelibly in the reader?smind. In Puck: For Jeff, the poet paints the picture of a beloved son-in-law, a prankster with impishgrin, a jack-in-the-pulpit, characterized by images of Shakespeare?s Puck and the sound of Falstaff?shearty laughter which mingle in a man who ?swallow(s) the world in one/gulp.? Part Three is entitledWhatever, but hidden in that non-committal word is the title poem and an intensive look at the poeticspark underlying Gutteridge's work. His title work describes the genesis of a poem as ?a tingle/in thebrain, a sprout abruptly/unbudded, the beginning/of a word or more precisely/its first singingsyllable,/enticed towards a phrase,/and then by some urge/to say the unsayable,/the nub of a poemjust/begun, and compelled/with a single-minded surge/to completion.
