John Thomas Pelletier brings you a refreshingly vibrant, often humorous, and sometimes introspective picture of life in his first collection of poetry, A Drop of Light.

With his words, John captures the entire gamut of human emotions as he speaks so eloquently of special occasions and everyday matters; of parents and parenting, teaching and learning; of laughter, anger, sorrow and love—his life laid out in poems rich with expression.

His work has previously appeared in A Golden Morning: An Anthology of Canadian Verse, published by the Poetry Institute of Canada in 2004.
