Amethysts and Emeralds is a selection of Daniel King’s awardwinning

poetry, much of which has been published in journals

around the world. The poems embrace a wide variety of forms,

from free verse to sonnet, roundel, villanelle, and sestina.

Thematically, too, the poems are very varied, ranging from the

realist “Head in the Sand”, published in the prestigious London

Magazine, to a song lyric from Shadows of 1876: The Wild

Birds have Returned, a CD of mystical country music songs

about historical fi gures and events from the United States in the

year 1876. Most of the poems, however, are of a religious and/

or mystical theme: indeed, a large subset of the poems concerns

the genesis and future life of Kalki, the tenth and final avatar of

the Hindu God Vishnu (the Preserver), incarnating this time and

forever together with Shiva (the Destroyer).
