In Big Dipper, Kenneth S. Robson offers us a generous helping of poems from a lifetime of writing. Here are rue and joy, sorrow and laughter, and new beginnings at the end of things. This work is a testament to ongoingness. In it, forebears live and die again; birds fall and soar; and the poet, despite the reluctance of his body, laughs and sorrows and cheers with all the energy of universal youth. He dips into life, gets to the heart of it, and finds it good, even if difficult to digest at times.
