Poetry & Songs

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

A collection of poetry and additional song lyrics aimed at those new to poetry and those who already have an appreciation of the art form. Containing over 40 poems and 12 song lyrics they cover a range of topics and subjects from love, pain and loss, family relationships, traveling and living abroad. Both accessible and thought provoking many of the poems are tender and lyrical. Some are romantic and inspiring, others dark and existential in nature and a few sprinkled with a dry humour. This collection is ideal for those wanting an easy introduction to what poetry is all about. While accessible, it also tries to stretch the reader beyond what is now called or sometimes passed off as poetry, in the current world of social media. It will also appeal to those who have been long time devotees to an art form that Carol Ann Duffy describes as "The music of being human". The poems come in all shapes and sizes and include free verse, rhyming as well the occasional sonnet and villanelle. The author sees this collection as part autobiographical and part observational and in doing so tries to connect with the reader in a kinship that ultimately recognises the shared and common emotional response we can all have in any given situation. In pre-publication reviews this collection was found to be 'Insightful, sensitive and tender". "Beautiful and Inspirational". Many of the poems drew on a "Deep love of language. Never banal or predictable but soulful and often fun."
