some dream that somehow never came true. Was it the promotion we counted on? The novel we wanted to write? The fame we thought was ours for the taking?Lee-Hamilton's sonnet plunges us into this melancholy atmosphere . . . He takes us into the "dim green depths" of the sea and down to the very bottom where ships lie wrecked and forgotten.
from Christopher Nield: The Epoch Times: The Antidote--Classic Poetry for Modern Life: A Reading of "Sunken Gold" by Eugene Lee-Hamilton
