Download or read book My Poets written by Maureen N. McLane and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2014-07-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A thrillingly original exploration of a life lived under poetry's uniquely seductive spell "Oh! there are spirits of the air," wrote Percy Bysshe Shelley. In this stunningly original book Maureen N. McLane channels the spirits and voices that make up the music in one poet's mind. Weaving criticism and memoir, My Poets explores a life reading and a life read. McLane invokes in My Poets not necessarily the best poets, nor the most important poets (whoever these might be), but those writers who, in possessing her, made her. "I am marking here what most marked me," she writes. Ranging from Chaucer to H.D. to William Carlos Williams to Louise Glück to Shelley (among others), McLane tracks the "growth of a poet's mind," as Wordsworth put it in The Prelude. In a poetical prose both probing and incantatory, McLane has written a radical book of experimental criticism. Susan Sontag called for an "erotics of interpretation": this is it. Part Bildung, part dithyramb, part exegesis, My Poets extends an implicit invitation to you, dear reader, to consider who your "my poets," or "my novelists," or "my filmmakers," or "my pop stars," might be.

Download or read book The Resonance Code written by Joseph Friedman and published by . This book was released on 2019-04-08 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BLACK-AND-WHITE EDITION Human civilization is at a crossroads. Challenges of immense volatility and uncertainty press us to evolve our ourselves at a greater pace than we have ever done. We need to heal and revitalize the inner terrain of the psyche so our consciousness can respond creatively to the complexity that surrounds and challenges us. The Resonance Code is born of a marriage between ancient and modern, East and West. Its ancient and Eastern sources are Taoist Philosophy and the I Ching, one of Earth's most ancient complexity theories. Its modern and Western sources are contemporary theories of human development and practices of leadership coaching. According to the Taoist framework, the human psyche functions as an organic "resonator," directly exchanging and amplifying resonance - known as qi - with its social and natural environment. Qi carries information essential for our growth and thriving as individuals and as a species. However, on our modern, materialistic path of development, our cognitive minds struggle to process this subtle exchange between ourselves and our environment. This disconnection leads to much of the grief, loneliness, and pervasive distress we experience today. The Resonance Code presents a knowledge system developed through a leadership training curriculum at Resonance Path Institute. This system aims at awakening the psyche to resonance. It enables the rational mind to evolve beyond current limitations so we can dance with complexity and embrace uncertainty as the fertile ground of creativity. The Resonance Code is calling forth a new generation of resonance leaders. These are people who may or may not hold conventional leadership titles, but who love the Earth, feel compassion for all its inhabitants, and are committed to participate in humanity's evolutionary journey.

Download or read book Book of Rhymes written by Adam Bradley and published by Civitas Books. This book was released on 2017-06-27 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If asked to list the greatest innovators of modern American poetry, few of us would think to include Jay-Z or Eminem in their number. And yet hip hop is the source of some of the most exciting developments in verse today. The media uproar in response to its controversial lyrical content has obscured hip hop's revolution of poetic craft and experience: Only in rap music can the beat of a song render poetic meter audible, allowing an MC's wordplay to move a club-full of eager listeners. Examining rap history's most memorable lyricists and their inimitable techniques, literary scholar Adam Bradley argues that we must understand rap as poetry or miss the vanguard of poetry today. Book of Rhymes explores America's least understood poets, unpacking their surprisingly complex craft, and according rap poetry the respect it deserves.

Book excerpt: THIS BOOK WRITTEN by Edwin Debiew is a book of suddenthoughts which came over his mind within the last few months.Edwin wanted to capture those thoughts in writing and decided to try hishand at poetry. Edwin Debiew is a poet who thinks outside of the normalpoetic structure and conforms to his own rules of writing poetry. He writesfrom his impromptu thoughts and allows the poems to develop in his mindwhile formulating the final product. Edwin's ink pen adapts a mind of itsown and cuts like a sword when needed, and paints like a new brush at times.Edwin creates poems just like a lyricist who recites verse after verse-usingvarious rhyme schemes. Poetry defined is a freedom of expression that is fluidlike water. Simply meaning, poetry can mean many things to many people,but the greatest thing about the meaning, is that it is whatever you want it tobe. Of course, there has to be some grammatical and thematic cohesion, butthe meaning can span from A to Z, if your mind flows freely. The process ofaligning words concertedly to arrive at a point with the intention to generatefeelings is a good definition! This is Edwin Debiew's definition of poetry.His new book, Impromptu Poetry, "Thoughts On My Mind" possessesvarious thought provoking themes, while showing a variety of rhymeschemes. Edwin uses real life examples of joy and daily issues and turns theminto short poetic stories for readers to build upon. From short tanaga's andclerihew's, Edwin flows long with "The Opposite of Invictus" and "R&BSongs and Memories."Moreover, Impromptu Poetry is Edwin's story as he progresses in life. Hispoems expounds on past experiences, perceptions by others and relationshipswith others of the world. Edwin gives credence in love poems for women-todeclare their great place in society. Impromptu Poetry will make many laugh,think, invoke inner feelings and motivate and guide people through themind of a man who continues to strive for the best life has to offer!

Download or read book A Poetic Mind written by Arlene and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-08-23 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My thoughts in words. This is a collection of poems that started as a hobby; a pastime. It talks about hopes and dreams, love and faith, courage and fears. It is my artistic expression of what I feel and observe; heart and mind combined. Life is not always 'a bed of roses'. Sometimes there are struggles that can make or break you. It is definitely our choice that decides our fate. These poems can inspire you to do great things in your daily lives. They can be a source of guidance and warning. We need to be very aware of what's happening around us and more importantly inside our own selves. I never believed before that writing can be very therapeutic until two years ago in 2016 when I started to write my first poem. Exploring and honing our God-given talents can be very fulfilling. I was surprised that I became addicted to poetry-writing and finally decided to publish my own book. This is my way of praising the Lord for His everlasting love and abundant blessings. TO GOD BE THE HIGHEST GLORY.

Download or read book Take A Walk Through My Mind written by Angela Wignall and published by . This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I discovered many years ago that writing poetry is therapeutic for my anxious mind. Scribbling down words and rearranging them to form a poem, enables my unruly thoughts to escape from my head. This little book contains a selection of thought provoking, but ultimately, uplifting poems, composed by the author. That's me! The poems are complimented by the true story of how I developed my writing skills. First attempts in those early days were filled with fun and laughter for my family and friends. As I journeyed through life and experienced the highs and lows of living on this planet, my poetry became more inspirational and I am told, helpful to others struggling with bereavement, anxiety or just coping with today's fast pace of living. I hope you enjoy reading Take A Walk Through My Mind and perhaps will be inspired to put pen to paper yourself. Go For It!

Download or read book The Light in My Mind written by Ellen Hawkins and published by . This book was released on 2020-03-21 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we have a life experience, it is our teacher.Not being able to read and write was very hard in the 1950's. The educational system did not know about dyslexia. So, they saw Ellen Hawkins as a lazy, defiant child who didn't want to put in the time and effort to learn. They never saw all the hours she put into memorizing all the words before spelling tests. She would write them, over and over again, until she was able to feel how to spell them.One night, when Ellen was 26 years old, she was awakened at 3 a.m. to the feeling of a rhythm, and then she could hear words coming to her. A voice told her to get up and write it down or it would be lost. So, she did what she was told.That night was her first channeling experience, the poem she called, My Answer. Many of her poems are still channeled, or what some people call automatic writing. Ellen thinks if we could see with the veils lifted, we would see her hand with another on top of it, writing together, guiding her hand when and where and how it is needed.PRAISE FOR THE LIGHT IN MY MIND:"Ellen's debut release is so powerful, so elegantly a testament to overcoming obstacles - in her case, dyslexia - to speak straight from one's heart and soul.

Book excerpt: Welcome to the thoughts of a poet Duane ‘The Poetic Mind’ Abbott. The poems that you will read I hope will embrace you and will give you an insight to my world, life and thoughts told through my pen. I am a lover of words and how they are moved around, strung together and made into pure beauty. Listening to music in my early years, I can remember as I still do today loving the words and not just the melodies that can make a beautiful song come alive. The first time I can recall writing what I grew to know as poetry was just a few lines in a Christmas card to my then girlfriend at the time. Ever since then I caught this poetry bug which I believe is a God given talent to just write my emotions on any topic that can hit me at any given moment in time. These poems are just some of those emotions over the years that have now graced the pages of my very first book, which I hope to be the start of many. The book that you will read is firstly dedicated to my son named Poetry whose picture graces the front cover. He has inspired me to bring to life thoughts and feelings penned before his birth and after to an audience, which I hope will firstly appreciate my words and connect with the many poems. The Poetic Mind is just that, full of love poems, everyday thoughts, reality and inspirational poems. I promise The Poetic Mind will have you captivated and even may bring that tear to your eye. Please open the first page and may you enjoy a journey into my thoughts!

But as daily life become more and more chaotic, children grow distracted. According to the CDC, 9.4% of children have ADHD and 7% have anxiety/depression. And these numbers continue to climb. As treatment doctors recommend healthy eating, physical activity, plenty of sleep, and mindfulness techniques. Georgia Heard is a poet and educator—and she has long had her own meditation practice. In My Thoughts Are Clouds, she uses poetry to demonstrate what mindfulness is and gives kids—and their parents and teachers—accessible ways to learn mindfulness tools.

Download or read book Read my Mind written by Fred Sedgwick and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-11-01 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this, Sedgwick's latest book, he aims to help all those involved with children and their learning through poem-writing improve their practice. He argues that through poetry, children can learn about the whole curriculum, including history and science. The book begins with an introduction outlining the importance of poetry, and defining it. It discusses poetry in terms of children's learning and the imagination. Case studies are used to show how children learn about themselves - first, their bodies, and second, their thoughts and emotions - through the writing of poetry. Using many examples of childrens work he considers how children learn about their environment and the relationship between themselves and their environment. Finally, he discusses his techniques for getting children to write and provides recommendations for further reading. Fred Sedgwick is a freelance lecturer and writer specialising in children's writing, art and personal, social and moral education and has been described as 'the nearest thing I've seen to the Pied Piper'. Previously a headteacher in primary schools for 16 years, he has published books of poetry for both children and adults.
