About This Book
These haiku-like poems arise out of Kenneth Steven's perception of the Iona landscape. They have the sense of wonder, seeing, and being in the moment that many of us experience when spending time on this jewel-like island in a turquoise sea. Iona has been Kenneth's spiritual home since his childhood. He even learned to walk on one of the island's beaches. He sometimes fears that there may be no more hidden corners to find, but there always are. His poetry collection 'Iona' - first published in 2000 - remains one of his best-known books, although he is also a writer of novels, short stories and children's books.

Religious Ecumenism & InterfaithAfter the storm
blue sky comes back ā
a whole field of sunlight.
A little glen
opens its winter dark
into the riches of orchids.
There is a beach
where globes of Baltic amber can be found:
hold them in the sun like honey.
The marble quarry
is never where you want it to be ā
Iām sure they move it in the winter.
Before nightfall
the Ross of Mull
left bloodstone by the sun.
Sometimes
itās about little more
than a boat on a blue sea.
Straggled and limping
a skein of greylag geese ā
voices like bagpipes.
Ten thousand people come here every day
the whole of July and August.
Cross to the west side and thereās silence.
A single canoe
needles and sews
the Sound of Iona.
There are Hebridean songs
made just so the seals
will break the skin of the sea.
A new morning:
another miracle
we fail to see.
