This Edition brings us back home. Island Dreams III-My Life As A Boy-Bahamas 43rd Independence Edition was meant to capture and freeze one moment in time that has shaped and given us all such a vision of the Bahamas. The same vision that my grandfather saw as he looked at mangoes growing so beautifully on the trees; the pride of a beautiful brown sapodilla as he admired the taste and aroma of one bite; the papayas, golden orange as the sun basked down upon them; the sweet smell of the sugar apples ripening on the tree; and ooooohhh the Sour Sop dripping with pure delight. May we remember the crabbing season, the hauling nets, and yes the smell of the sea grapes filling us with such sweet desire. This is our home land; this is the shores that beckon us all back; this is the land of Pindling, Hannah, and Cecil. This is our Bahama Land!! Foreword by: Dr. Donald M. McCartney, D.M.

Download or read book Bahamian Scene written by Susan J Wallace and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-16 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bahamian Scene is a colourful and exciting volume of poems depicting with great insight, many aspects of Bahamian life. The verse is a record of the people and the islands in the mid and later sixties - a time of political, social, technological and silent revolution. Conditions and customs changed rapidly, and the author has captured the ways of the people of her beloved islands. Through her work, this unique lifestyle will be preserved. The poet uses the Bahamian dialect in most of these poems and a colourful and rhythmically rich language flows easily. The dialect adds to the authenticity of the poetry, as Dr. Wallace describes the physical beauty of the islands, and the friendliness of the good-natured Bahamian people. Their wonderful sense of humour is evident throughout the poems. Surprisingly and delightfully, strains of humour run through verse with more serious themes. In these verses, we see the philosophy and careful thought needed to initiate changes so rapidly occurring in the Bahamas. The rapid change created a kind of dynamism that lends itself to exciting and vibrant poetry. Readers will be delighted by this poetry, and enlightened by the poet's understanding of the Bahamas as an emerging nation.

Book excerpt: "Bougainvillea Ringplay is the long awaited second collection by Marion Bethel, a poet who now establishes herself as one of the most necessary voices in Caribbean poetry. These poems are finely crafted works that reveal a mastery of syntax that one finds in only the most sophisticated poets. Her poems are rooted in the landscape of the Bahamas, and yet while we find the flora, the sea, the food, and the dialect, in them, we are never allowed to imagine this place as a cliche, or as a tourist location. Instead, Bethel's sharp sense of detail, her unsettling truth-telling, and the risks she takes with narratives about love and hurt in all kinds of relationships open for us an emotional intelligence that is arresting. History is constantly present for her, and it is hard to walk away from her poems without feeling as if you have finally met her homeland. These poems are sensual: the scent of vanilla; the sound of waves, radio, voices, sea; the taste of crab soup; the texture of hurricane wind, and the chaos of colors bombarding the eye. Bahamian poetry is being defined in the work of Marion Bethel and in Bougainvillea Ringplay it is being done with grace." --Book Jacket.
