It is dedicated to June Checkley, a wonderful and loving person who sadly passed away July 2005.Why don't you have a read of them and see if you can work out what sort of person the author is? Liane is very passionate about her writing and gets a lot of enjoyment from it.
Download or read book Words Don t Come Easy written by James Millar and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-17 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is my third book of poetry.Thanks to all those who have purchased and read either, or both of my previous publications. This is greatly appreciated and the feedback I have received has been a major encouragement to me in continuing in this work. This latest collection of poems is a real mixture of topics, some sad, some hopefully funny. For the romantics, there are poems on love and romance, poems looking at the entertainment industry,which as a cabaret artiste is close to my heart, and others on a more serious note, some looking at life today and the world we live in, including my latest one on the problems affecting countries with the Covid 19 Pandemic.. A pretty varied selection in all. It's taken some time for me to put all of this together because as the title suggests, Words Don't Come Easy". Nothing can come to mind for months on end and then there is an outpouring of ideas which usually come to the fore in the middle of the night. Indeed, in some cases I have written complete poems before rising. Keeping a pen and a notebook at the bedside therefore has been crucial for me as the thought and flow of words would probably have gone and been forgotten by morning.Now at last it's finished. I've loved doing this and I very much hope you enjoy the book.

Book excerpt: In the strength of your stance There is but a solemn weakness... This thing we all grieve for one way or another. It is what fashions us together. Cleverly knitted within each woven thread, There is a piece of us all. In the midst of this presence we seem to forget... But Love...True Love ceases to remember Our flaws, mistakes, regrets, failures, tears, fears, Heartaches & the time we have carelessly wasted... With this endless boundary you can never fall out of Love Because IN Love Your solemn weaknesses becomes the strength of your stance & in that we can rejoice... Even if words are few or have lost value, Whether they are giving birth or creating chaos It can be justified with purpose... Not to our own understanding... Here I stand exposed & delicately composed. A gentle kiss rests upon my lips Giving me the freedom to dream big, dig deep, To drink well from this cup of good intentions... But beneath the surface Things rarely seen are not released without sacrifice or pain & not always pleasing Like Love...WORDS Don't COME Easy...

This book, and the words within, is what Karen will leave behind, so that when that day comes, people will know that she lived. From the earliest age the sounds of words drew her, and when old enough to follow them on paper she fell in love. Over the years I have had the pleasure of watching this love affair. Now you can too. Brook Johnson, the author's father Karen Ann Gill lives in Mansfield, Missouri with her husband and two children. She works in a small local restaurant. My Poetry is Me is just the beginning of her journey...there is much more to come. Publisher's Website: http: //www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/MyPoetryIsMe.htm
Download or read book The Fever Poems written by Kylie Gellatly and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-16 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "These poems know a great deal about beauty and violence: 'twenty years / was about as much good as / circling / a black eye'. Kylie Gellatly shows us what vividness is, how it lives in our shapes, our pain, our imaginary (and real) selves: 'man taken / to be a trench / that might have been a cannon ball'. This poetry composes musics with silences. It is both a song and whisper, an erasure and exhalation. It is both a journey across us, and inward: 'the ship was the rib of reason / [...] the ship was beginning to be an alarm / the ship was right there on the floor while this book was written.' Herein history is envious of a dreamscape. And yet: the dream aspires to be dailiness, and fears it. Which is to say: this is a book of fevers the likes of which you feel most familiar with, yet have not seen before. Recognize yourself in them." -Ilya Kaminsky, author of Deaf Republic "Musical and deeply felt, these poems-untitled and running wild-chase down the heart. No tangible space is without the immaterial here. The Elements are resilient, and I feel pushed and pulled by them. Gellatly's debut book is beautiful, haunted and mystical. Her poems are like 'the strange contrast between death and dawn, ' and 'the fool's divine spark / forever coming loose' in the reader's hands." -Bianca Stone, author of The Möbius Strip Club of Grief "In Kylie Gellatly's The Fever Poems, water is silk that rubs against the night. Events are figments of the speaker's imagination and graves shape time. Extremely contemporary in their fixation on illness, isolation, and anxiety, these poems spill down and across the page like slate off a cliffside. There is an unwavering generosity to the introspection of this speaker: through her eyes, floating ash becomes 'hundreds of baled papers, bent up like two bears dancing.' This is a collection that understands and beautifully, painfully relays that what we have-with each other, with the land-is 'the last of the last.'" -Taneum Bambrick, author of Vantage "'I was sore at heart, ' writes Kylie Gellatly in The Fever Poems, and the reader is invited into a sprawling, curious, visionary, deeply empathetic, epic debut. Her poems shine goldly in the space between elemental earth-salt, rock, wind, weather-and the human, conscious choice of living. With echoes of Jorie Graham and W. S. Merwin, Gellatly navigates the complexities of language, 'a pledge made / into paper / weathered / in our hands, ' 'choked with the monsters of parentheses'. This is a collection for our time of pandemic, uncertainty, and an urgent need for a revision of our relationship with the natural world-Gellatly recognizes the swinging pendulum of power between the earth's force and human interference, and, without castigation, illuminates us." -Jenny Molberg, author of Refusal "Kylie Gellatly's The Fever works like a ship, navigating the tempests of our fragile moment. The poems enact a wandering/wondering through fire and fog, investigating meaning through a naturalist's lens, balancing an elemental pull with the fierce heat of being human. This collection is an invitation to a sensorial meditation, one where fever is less a symptom of sickness than a door to discovery." -Erin Adair-Hodges, author of Let's All Die Happy
