​'Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquillity.' So said William Wordsworth, a poet who understood implicitly the inspiration of the natural environment. On The Poetry Trail encapsulates, precisely, Wordsworth’s understanding of the power of tranquil spaces to reach into the heart of the poet and draw upon emotion.
 
The pages here are attentively crafted from this connection. The journey taken by the Pente Poets is a worthy and timely reminder of what it means to be a part of the places we live, gifted through the beauty of poetry and art that overflows from this volume and into the very spaces that first inspired.
 
To wander the Hinterland of this region, and hear the words of the poets spoken through the vision of the artists, is restorative, a salve for the soul of the land and the people who connect with it. On The Poetry Trail is a keepsake of the legacy of the Pente Poets, a reminder of the bliss and pleasure of poetry in place.
