The poems in SIGHTINGS are accessible to many readers, both young and old. They consider what it is like to be a human being in this modern world, drawing inspiration mainly from the people whom the writer has encountered, especially in Hong Kong. She has made use of everyday life situations and turned them into life lessons. Sightings inspires us to slow down and taste the sense of the city.- Ma Kwai Hung. The poems in 'Sightings' are witty, poignant, full of memorable images and insights and a total delight. I was very impressed by the entire publication including the essay. - Professor Ken Pickering Sightings conveys playfulness and ironic humour. The writer displays, 'a strong ethical sense and a constant and engaging lyricism'. -Marion Bethel, Bahamian poetBickley has, a talent for turning the stuff of ordinary life into poetry. She continually surprises and delights by making fresh connections between seemingly disparate situations. - Mrs Margaret Clarke
