Download or read book Poems for All Seasons written by Lolita Jude and published by Partridge Publishing. This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have written 'Poems for All Seasons' with a view to have children conduct a bit of soul-searching while also keeping in mind the important fact that they are 'children'. Most of the poems are 'fun' poems which the kids will enjoy reading. Also there is at least one poem within the selection that every child can identify with. As adults, we at times forget the child within us. I have addressed various 'issues' that a child may have but which may seem trivial to an adult. There is no set formula for a 'stress-free' existence but we can work towards it. Children are very dear to me and with this view in mind, I set out to write my anthology of poems. It is meant to tickle your funny-bone, inspire, lift up your spirits when you are down, and most importantly- to help you value yourself.
