"Previous springs have brought us a dazzling miscellany of poetry in the form of Mingled Voices and, happily, this year is no exception, with another batch of freshly hatched poems before us, blinking in the early sunlight of our eager gaze. This year's topic was 'Renewal'; as with themes from previous years, this one was interpreted widely, though the term takes on a special meaning in the light of our global recovery from the pandemic. However, it also suggests the phrase 'Make It New' which, popularised by American poet and critic Ezra Pound, and often quoted in discussions of Modernist poetics, actually seems to have a pedigree dating back to the Shang Dynasty in China. And, I believe, the best of the writing here truly helps us to see the world afresh through the eyes - and above all through the vivid imagination and vibrant words - of the poets.
-Jeff Streeter,
Writer and critic, formerly Director of the British Council in Hong Kong. "It is wonderful that Proverse has created such a community of writers, that we can read and appreciate each other's poetry, and that it has been published and distributed to the world."

International Proverse Poetry Prize 2021.
