Well-known poet, playwright and Aboriginal activist Jack Davis wrote his first book, a collection of poems, twenty-two years ago. Poetry, in his words, "has a beauty of its own which prose cannot reach. It is the elixir of life." Here in poems of celebration, introspection and lament, the grace and wisdom of his voice resonates. He touches on feelings and expectations, in a world we all share, and reflects upon nature, urban life, youth, love and relationships, the past, and the day to day.
