Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Backwoods Poems The little book here presented embraces the rhymes and poems written by me in a period of thirty years, beginning with my boyhood. All of them have already been laid before the public in newspapers and periodicals; but, like autumnal leaves cast on the rushing stream, they have been swept away, and only the writer's scrap-book has saved them from oblivion. It is not through affectation that I have given my book the title it bears. I chose this title in my boyhood, when I first conceived the design of publishing, some day, a book of poems. Nor is the title inappropriate. While I was yet an infant, my father, with his family, settled down in a wilderness, where I grew up with the population, rarely ever going out of the neighborhood for forty years. Save what I learned from books and newspapers, and from the conversation of those into whose society I was thrown - The little world in which I lived. Was all the world I knew. The old log school-house with a single window and a single door-described in one of my earlier pieces-was my alma mater; the green woods were my campus; and if I climbed Parnassus, 'twas not with Homer, "by dint o' Greek," but with trusty dogs, chasing the mottle-coated hare over the bush-covered hillock. Thus isolated and thus surrounded, both my intellectual and my moral nature could not fail to receive a coloring, which, reflected on my rhythmic effusions, renders the appellation, "Backwoods Poems," peculiarly significant. I am well aware, that there are many crudities and imperfections in these poems, particularly in the earlier pieces. I have kept all; I could not discard the poor children of my brain on account of deformity. Such as they are, I present my rhymes to the public, craving their indulgence if I can not gain their applause. One merit, at least, I claim, for which I hope my readers will give me credit. I have not attempted to carry them to lofty heights, nor into deep waters. Knowing the weakness of my arm, I have kept my little boat near the shore! In the years to come, I hope - what writer did not so hope? - that I will have many, very many, readers. In the variety presented, I hope that each reader will find something to please, something to while away a passing hour, and somewhere in these pages - I pray God! - something to incite to a nobler, better life.

Book excerpt: Encrypted lyrical poems of real life struggles and strives. Ryan Morrison was raised to walk on faith, follow the signs on this road laid out for us. Life is a journey with change of plans, people, the unexpected. Proud of his down home raising, was taught to keep his life simple, but his dreams wide open. A man's worth comes from working hands, but gentle enough to lift those up in need. From a long line of farmers, mechanics, musicians, blue collar-small town country folks. The fields, backwoods, backroads, dirt roads all have taught him how to slow down when things get bumpy. No stranger to hard times and loss. When life throws dust in your eyes, wipe them off and see again. God, family, friends is your strength. The backwoods is your piece of mind.

Download or read book Planted by the Signs written by Misty Skaggs and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2019-09-24 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Planted by the Signs brings us the contemporary Appalachian poetry—cultivated in the dirt of Elliott County, Kentucky—of Misty Skaggs. With an eye for details that exquisitely balance personal and social observation to communicate volumes, she tells the stories of generations of women who have learned to navigate a harsh world with a little help from the Farmers’ Almanac and the stars. The collection is separated into three sections that reference the best times to grow and harvest. Knowing and following these guidelines—planting by the signs—could mean the difference between prosperity and tragedy in the lives of Appalachian families. Personal, political, and passionate, Planted by the Signs also explores what it means for Skaggs to care for her great-grandmother at the end of her life. Color photos by the poet further showcase her sidelong and fierce outlook. The images and poems together deliver an intimate look into the day-to-day reality of a backwoods woman embracing barefooted radicalism in the only place she could call home.
