His poems are rich in imagery and symbolism, and his language is both sensual and spiritual. Mackay's poems explore all aspects of love, from its joys to its sorrows, its ecstasies to its agonies. He writes of the first flush of passion, the deep and abiding love between two partners, the pain of loss and betrayal, and the enduring power of forgiveness.
