“You will want to read this enchanting book over and over again. Enjoy!”
Ann Marie Bourassa, Canada
When speaking of poetry is it unfortunate that it has evolved into a “vague imagery and
style which has little to do with the real-world lives of ordinary people.” It is the sweetest of
writing and my efforts are always to express myself with clarity and understanding to any
reader. I would like to say that poetry is not always – or should not always be about love,
hate, loss, broken hearts and the long litany of subject matter that it is usually associated.
Poetry can be and should be fun as well. It takes so little to trigger the writing of a poem.
Laughter, poking fun at and with each other, in general there is a lighter side to poetry!
Many of the writings in the book are fun – but there is also a more serious and darker side
revealed as well.
D.W.Holmes
QUOTES FROM THE BOOK
“Those who live in their past, choose to suffer their own history.
Those who learn from their past, choose to better their own future.”
“To be remembered is not the mark upon history one leaves,
but the mark upon the hearts, of all one has encountered.”
“Perhaps the greatest gift you may give another,
is not to direct them down a given path,
but rather to help them find their own path.”
