Further complicating my review are my varying relationships with the poets themselves. True, Catherine Morocco and Marilyn Ringer are complete strangers, although I am sure I would recognize them by sight. Kate Chappell, Iris Miller, and Frances Vaughn I only know by long standing history and name. While I am more acquainted with Jan Bailey, Mary Kordak, Jan Kornbluth, & Joanne Scott, in truth K.K. Iannicelli and Judith Ponturo are island mothers. They could be my island mothers.
So. To review Island Voice II. I simply can't. When I read about the ocean's melodic drumming, I also hear Kathi's wheelbarrow coming up the hard packed dirt road. When I see words about the salt, salt air I also see Judy humming in Winter Works. On the page the gulls may laugh overhear but I see Jan's secret smile as another tourist tries on a wrestling mask. Queen Anne's Lace blown bent backwards in Mary's garden but all I see is her radiant smile. I admit it, I read the words but see the home.½
