A captivating collection of deeply personal yet intensely relatable poems, Upon the Token Grass: Musings and Inspirational Experiences of a Jamaican Poet, captures the past thirty years of the author's life experiences triumphs and tragedies included. With poems about faith, nature, love, loss, politics, mental illness, and even a heartfelt longing for the simplicity of childhood and the comforts of home, this collection examines the vagaries of human existence and serves it back up to its readers as delectable morsels of insight and imagery that are undeniably impactful. With a poetic voice and perspective as unique as it is compelling, James Golding has created a collection that takes its readers on a journey mirroring the human experience and promising personal growth, even when it hurts. Matured in both its subject matter and depth, Upon the Token Grass: Musings and Inspirational Experiences of a Jamaican Poet, is a collection that can be appreciated one exceptional poem at a time or all in one sitting-settling in and allowing the author's unique perspective and immersive phrasing to sweep you up and carry you along in the complex and emotional current. Either way ... take your time. It is a journey worth savouring.
James Golding, a native of St. Catherine, Jamaica, wrote his first poem sometime in the early nineties and continued writing them as the years passed, using the process of putting his thoughts down on paper to help him work through difficulties, capture beauty, and simply navigate the world around him and his place within it. He never had any intention of gathering those musings into a collection for publication, but when a colleague did something similar, he was inspired to do so, hoping to preserve his poems-and the feelings and experiences captured therein-for posterity. James very much hopes that his readers will find solace and inspiration in these pages. He currently lives in Sackville, Nova Scotia, where he enjoys writing, reading, and watching movies.
