Produktbeschreibung

ONE OF THE most well-known passages in the Bibleand, perhaps, in all of literatureis the thirteenth chapter of St. Pauls first letter to the Corinthians, often called the love chapter. In it, Paul extols the qualities of love and ends his writing by stating, And these three abide: faith, hope, and love. These three virtues have guided me during my days on this earth: ? A faith that draws me daily to admit my inadequacies and to ask for the grace to live a life worthy of His calling ? A hope that continuously compels me to be a stronger person, a brighter light, a better writer ? A deep and abiding love for God, my family, my friends I have tried to express these virtues in the poems I share with you here. The majority of my poems do not rhyme. Instead, I like to build a rhythm in my writing by how I break each line in a verse so that your eye is constantly yearning for the next word. For something different, I have included two examplesescape and Lovers and Other Strangersof concrete poetry, a form developed in the 1950s in which the physical shape of the words on the page adds as much meaning to the poem as the words themselves. And with a nod to my Bachelors degree in Russian, I also give you ? ?????????? ????????????, with its translation on the following page. I recently took one of those online quizzes about what type of writer are you? My results said that, You write because you feel a deeper calling to the work, and because you want to explore the soul element of life. Youre not shy of adding a moral to the story and most want to reach readers who will understand your unique view on life. Writing is more than just putting words on paper for youit is a written prayer. And to that I can say only, Amen.
