Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Waiting For Birds is a collection that traverses nearly half a century and three countries. With a compassionate and humorous eye, Rob King takes himself and the reader from a childhood in Yorkshire - listening to the radiogram, making jam, or watching a neighbour fishing for hens, through the challenges of working with the homeless in Scotland, and worm-watching with one of his sons, to the new life he found in New Zealand, observing people at Ngaio train station, cycling the streets and just ...waiting for birds.
"Waiting for birds is a collection that traverses nearly half a century and three countries, for poet Rob King it is one of his last chances at seeing his work in print."-- Back cover.
