Wood Island Prints

Here is a collection of 55 down-to-earth poems about characters and events on Prince Edward Island, Canada. There are poems about various characters who march to their own drums, poems about of local Ceilidhs (entertainments with a variety of local performers), a poem about a crew of inept sailors who run aground, and even a poem in which a group of Lobster fishermen decide to tow a local island to a warmeer climate for the winter. Much of the material is taken from his eccentric performances where he reads poems in appropriate accents and dialects while dressed in unusual hats and shirts. It is a thoroughly entertaining book with many specific details about prople and places on the island.

Humor & Entertainment

Stewart, Leslie

Humor

This second book of Leslie's poetry is rich with images of Prince Edward Island. There are pieces about looking out to sea and the variety of seasons. There are stories about shipwrecks and ghosts of sailors long passed away. Island halls and Ceilidhs have their place. There is a dialogue between potatoes and a romance between cows! Young Witch Hazel experiments with flying and there is even a PEI version of the Nativity. Leslie's poems are always readable and fun to read out loud--as he does at various Island performances.

Photography & Video

This third book of his poetry continues in his very accessible style with poems about children and grandchildren, wife shopping, cats, thanksgiving, and even an historical equivalent of a Nativity story on PEI. Most poems are accompanied by photographs and some function as a tourist's guide to Prince Edward Island.

Home at Last

This 4th collection of Leslie's poems continues in his varied and sometimes outrageous style with pieces about revenge on an unfaithful husband, a local restaurant and a waitress, dropping a knife on his sister's head, a local character who collects bottles to recycle, making wine in a leaking tub, etc. His topics all have local colour and the poems are short and easy to read. Some are of true events and people while others are quite fanciful, but his ability as a poet is confirmed!
