Cloudless at First presents 30 years of Morelys poetry including her mostrecent work in the same sure lyrical voice.Hilda Morleys poems even the elegiac ones are a celebration almostritually so steeped in the wine of what Donne called the ecstasy. She is apoet of loss and she is a romantic as much as she is a metaphysician. Theyears have not diminished her amazingly youthful ardor. The late poems come tous wild and fresh radiating a joy of invention that is inseparable from herwordplay.Stanley Kunitz «
