Apart from its verbal felicities (as in her description of cows with their `warm galumphing machinery and tunnelly stomachs') and its refreshing directness of tone, there is the remarkable warmth and humanity which shines through all her poetry.
She deals with topics people care about - love, family relationships, loss, aging, the fragility of happiness and writes of them with courage, candour, and a maturity of perception which amounts to wisdom. Above all her poems are immensely likeable: they are a pleasure to read"" - Fleur Adcock.
