Kamal Parmar’s innate connection with nature permeates the pages of her poems; and her sense of loyalty and family weaves its way throughout the book taking us on roads often not taken that afford a special glimpse into the workings of the master design.  God’s palm print graces each page with joy and sorrow and empathy, empowerment and wonder.  There is an ever prevalent eloquent ease to the flow of the words as the forests seems to whisper and the waters seem to sigh gently while the poems take on their own special characteristics and form their own little statuettes.— Candice James,  Poet Laureate Emerita, City of New Westminster,  BC and author of  ‘Behind the One-Way Mirror”.



Like a melodious wind chime, the poems in Just Passing By offer a harmonious journey through fir, spruce, cedar and dogwood with lightness and grace. A profound sense of gentleness permeates the reader as Parmar’s verse weaves seasons and life. To be in forest and parks with the poet is to be at peace. Musicality brimming with existentialism, this collection is a delight for the senses. Parmar’s spirit inhabits the landscape of Nanaimo, leaving it as pristine as she found it. Her music, simultaneously soft and strong, washes over us, calling us to presence, to our place in nature, leaving no footprint. Just Passing By is an imagistic dance through depths of time and paradox, restoring readers with gentle wisdom to meditate on time and time again.  ~  Cynthia Sharp, author of “Rainforest in Russet”
