Editorial
This third issue features poets from Wales, Ireland, England, Spain and America. It also features a Poet Profile on American poet Vince Clemente.
The Welsh poet Vernon Watkins was born in 1906, a hundred years ago. He died in Seattle, America, in 1967. Known for his close friendship with Dylan Thomas, he still attracts his own steadfast admirers. He, too, deserves a prominent and permanent memorial in Swansea. The opening poem is a tribute by Duane Niatum, a Seattle writer and a member of the Klallam Tribe.
Caroline Gill gives us an elegy for Idris Davies, who was a friend of Watkins and yet another Welsh poet who really deserves a modern audience. He's probably best known for Pete Seeger's song adaptation of his poem The Bells of Rhymney. He was, of course, published by T.S. Eliot of Faber and Faber.
Many thanks to the contributors for their poems and to our growing family of subscribers for their support. An extra thank you to Vince Clemente, a State University New York English Professor Emeritus, for being Consulting Editor for The Seventh Quarry in America.
