Wilson MacDonald
was a Canadian poet who wrote the Angels of the Earth in 1963. It is a beautiful handwritten book published by Thomas Nelson and Sons Limited of Canada. I am not sure if it still available but it is a beautiful book and a true treasure. From time to time, if no one objects, I will reprint some of the chapters.

I like MacDonalds ability to reach simplicity from complexity.

From a Letter to Wilson MacDonald from Albert Einstein

"I have read a great deal of your poems and I am deeply impressed by their spirit and also by the simplicity and lucidity of your language. I consider you a real artist, untouched by the artificiality of the literary fashion of our epoch.
