‘This is a comprehensive range of everyday close to the bone poems by Doug Gregory with sensitivity to other people's difficult lives. They are insightful and compelling. His poetry is universal; it is out there commenting most effectively on life's foibles as well as its delights. It is tender sometimes on recollection pessimistic – though his fine sense of goodwill overcomes the pessimism – and often full of fun. Sand Writers have been delighted to publish Doug's poems in our journal Speak Out.’ – Roger Rees President Sand Writers Inc.
