The poems of Allan Lake are full of wonder and reflection upon otherwise ordinary events. The poems take issue with predominant religious myths and favour a world in which god is as likely to speak through birdsong. Love is seen as the greatest of windfalls. The reader sees the familiar from an acute angle.
