Download or read book UnSong written by Michelle Garren Flye and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-04-23 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Remember the first book you read with no pictures in it? This is not that. Author Michelle Garren Flye has penned poems about being a woman and lovingly illustrated each one. Divided into three sections (Dream, Fear and Hope) with the semi-epic poem "The Death of a Thousand Cuts" providing a bridge from Dream to Fear, Flye's collection addresses what it is like to be a woman in today's world. Flye invites you to come on a journey of self-discovery and remember what it was like to read a book with pictures.UnSong by Michelle Garren Flye is a wicked-smart mash up of verse and graphic art. Early in the book, an elegy to Ruth Bader Ginsberg is paired with a portrait of a woman in a black dress, seen from behind, her arms raised as if to enthrall an unseen crowd. Later, a brilliant untitled haiku takes as its subject our "Covid Days." My favorite work in the book is a piece called River Bones: "... water rolls back to caress and cover the river's bones with the touch of a lover ..." Illustrated poetry books are hard to get right. UnSong nails it, the book rising above any limitations of the format. Buy this book! -Dennis Mahagin, author of Grand Mal, and Longshot & GhazalIn UnSong, Michelle Garren Flye's poems invite the reader to take a pause from the busyness and stress of modern life. In "River Bones," "time comes to a halt" after the wind uncovers "forgotten memories, a bucket, a plate, / a fishhook left on the line too late." While in "Everything Grows," Flye invokes Shakespeare's famous line from Sonnet #15: "When I consider everything that grows / holds in perfection but a little moment," in order to express how hard it is to make time stand still: "Everything grows, everything rushes into the night." Other poems reveal Flye's sharp sense of humor ("What Good is a Girl?") and wonder of the natural world such as in "I'm a December Tree" and "Now That I Am in Mid-Fall." ... As an added treat, Flye's poems are paired with her own illustrations. Savor this collection written by a romantic, and experience the wonder of reading joyful and optimistic poems-a true balm in these troubled times.-Alice Osborn, author of Heroes without CapesUnsong is a bit like a buffet with nuggets of wisdom you can choose to embrace until it fills your soul. Wonderful nibbles of hope that you will return to when you need a dash of light to repel the darkness.-Sam Love, author of Awakening: Musings on Planetary SurvivalUnSong is a beautiful compilation with an amazing amount of breadth and variety. Ms. Flye is literally a song writer! I particularly enjoyed the themes of "staying" and "taking flight". -Tracie Barton-Barrett, author of Buried Deep in Our Hearts and Finding Her SpiritMs. Flye's personality shines brightly through both her poetry and her illustrations. A lovely and relevant book to behold!-Leslie Tall Manning, award-winning author of Knock on Wood and Upside Down in a Laura Ingalls TownMichelle Garren Flye's poetry, art, and photography excite my senses and touch my heart.

Download or read book Eternal Love Romantic Poetry Straight from the Heart written by Stacey Chillemi and published by Author Stacey Chillemi. This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do you know when you are in love? What is true love and what is not? How can I find a person to love and share the rest of my life? Will true love come to me naturally? How can I build a relationship? The poems in my book answer these questions. People are eager to find true love—love that will not last a short period of time, but for a lifetime. Eternal Love is designed to answer these questions and more. It is divided into two sections that correspond to the way most people “experience” love: the explanation of love and the love poems (using poems and love letters that I created). Each part highlights a particular aspect of love, what love is, and how it can be obtained. Many philosophers and writers have tried to find the true meaning of love, yet true love remains to be one of the most mysterious feelings on this planet. Sometimes we are not always aware when true love comes our way. True love is not something we can control. It takes control of our mind, body, and soul. However, when it does come our way, it enriches our lives and makes our heart sing with joy. True love is magical, and no one should have to live without it. Eternal Love: Romantic Poetry Straight from the Heart is a collection of poems that describes the true meaning of true love. So find a comfortable spot in your home and get ready to encounter the magical journey of eternal love.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like an Astonished Magician I picture God scratching his head as the cosmos BigBangs! into being, the best 4th of July ever. Let There Be Light! simply doesn't do it justice. It's his trick, so he knows how he fooled the cheering crowd. Still, he has to admit he's impressed. Even he is oohing and aahing, authentically astonished. Was that hidden in his hat the whole time? From the pleasures of mature love (While ember kisses/stirred between two lifetimes twined in love/and years, those romance doesn't know about), to Yeats-inspired Celtic witchery, to visions of angels, flying saucers, and meeting yourself in a dream, Like an Astonished Magician is a no-downer, zero-navel-gazing poetic celebration of love, life, the imagination, and, of course, magic.

Download or read book Love an Index written by Rebecca Lindenberg and published by McSweeney's. This book was released on 2016-07-18 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A man disappears. The woman who loves him is left scarred and haunted. In her fierce, one-of-a-kind debut, Rebecca Lindenberg tells the story—in verse—of her passionate relationship with Craig Arnold, a much-respected poet who disappeared in 2009 while hiking a volcano in Japan. Lindenberg’s billowing, I-contain-multitudes style lays bare the poet’s sadnesses, joys, and longings in poems that are lyric and narrative, at once plainspoken and musically elaborate. Regarding her role in Arnold’s story, Lindenberg writes with clear-eyed humility and endearing dignity: “The girl with the ink-stained teeth / knows she’s famous / in a tiny, tragic way. / She’s not / daft, after all.” And then later, playfully, of her travels in Italy with the poet, her lover: “The carabinieri / wanted to know if there were bears / in our part of America. Yes, we said, / many bears. Man-eating bears? Yes, of course, / many man-eating bears.” Every poem in this collection bursts with humor, pathos, verve—and an utterly unique, soulful voice. This widely anticipated debut, already selected as a finalist for several prominent book awards, marks the first collection in the newly minted McSweeney’s Poetry Series. MPS is an imprint which seeks to publish a broad range of excellent new poetry collections in exquisitely designed hardcovers—poetry that’s useful and meaningful to anyone in any walk of life.
