Observations (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This is not just a book of poems, it is a book of memories. Once again you find yourself enjoying the days of your youth, the smell of grass after rain, the dust of the neighborhood ball park, the fury of an oncoming storm. We grow up, we get busy, and we forget the magic and wonder of the world around us. These poems bring that magic back.

These are poems of the everyday: noticing the little things while taking a walk: a forgotten shed, the passing of time, and how that time passing changes your viewpoint; finding that your love of a person has changed only in the details observed, but still affecting you to the same degree. It is hope found in scents, in the air, and in flowers rising from urban neglect. It is remembering things are never all bad, that so much depends what we focus on. Will you look at the broken-down and find something worthy? Will you remember the use an object once had? The poems are sometimes personal, but not so much as to prevent someone from relating.

This is the writer's second book of poems.

Autorenporträt

I have been writing since I learned how but only published my first collection of poems in 2012. Other published works include a long string of newspaper articles on youth soccer (club updates in the local paper), some historical articles on an online website now defunct, and three peer-reviewed scientific research papers from way back when I did primary research.

There have been a few career changes - researcher, teacher, operations specialist, bookseller, and (currently) medical IT. There are also three fantastic children which give an entirely different perspective to life.

I enjoy history, games, being outside, and quiet times.
