Returning Vet's Saga: The Healing Power of Poetry is a work that may appeal to those suffering from unexplained moments of anger, frustration, frightening nightmares, and unexplained moments of depression, which may be accompanied by a downpouring of tears. The author experienced all of those symptoms after returning from the military, and the symptoms lasted for about fifteen years before those symptoms even had a name, which we now call "PTSD." The author found that a sound, a smell, a spoken word, another's voice inflection, or something as simple as a commercial on television can trigger an episode of PTSD. There is no magic in poetry. However, the magic comes in being able to put feelings to paper, coming directly from the heart and completely bypassing the brain. We may not think of ourselves as poets, but if we just let the words flow, we may find that we are, in fact, poets of a special kind. This book ends with the poem that got it all started.
