He delves into the wonderful moments that life brings us, from vacations with horses, to steel pan music, and having kids. He does so in a reverent and awe-inspiring voice that allows the reader to really take hold of these events and experience them through his eyes. History and culture are not left out as the book offers a clear and thought-provoking voice on war, poverty, and immigration. There are poems about worship as well and they address Hislop's love for God and his faith. Hislop also writes about President Barack Obama. Also included in the work is a poem by Hislop's children, Maya and Rasheed, as homage to the author himself from a Father's Day gone by. Hislop hopes that readers will have no doubt when they peruse the lines that he is a well-equipped talent with a story to tell and a lesson to be learned from his life and times. Hislop hopes readers enjoy his poems and share them with family, friends, and neighbors so they can share in this exciting journey.

He also attended COSTAATT (College of Science, Technology, and Applied Arts of Trinidad and Tobago) where he earned his degree in Journalism, Public Relations, and Mass Communications.
