Layers of white Dressed in Black (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781976565281)

The longer we live the more we experience and understand Poetry has been one of the greatest expressions for revealing and capturing some of the heartfelt and meaningful moments and feelings of life, past and present. This is a genuine attempt to bring poetry and prose back into focus with a newer and lighter appeal. The imaginative variations presented respect the technicalities of English poetry and prose. Clear and logical arrangements certainly have been utilized throughout to stimulate sentiment, emotion and interest. The contents are diversified and depict tales of lasting romantic love and provide food for thought, Many of the poems touch on a few current viewpoints and expose man's conflicts with his own being and that of nature and progress. The familiar unmeasured rhythm of prose portrays legendary, theoretical, philosophical or hypothetical events. Life is full of unforgettable or unusual incidents. Some go beyond the normal expected pattern, giving our logic a different outlook. These poems are concise and condensed epilogues fused to form and vivify related moments in the reader's mind. Every verse endeavors to establish a decipherable and edifying word picture. Overused analogies or metaphors in poetry have served their purpose in a slower paced and unlearned society. Twentieth Century American English has become a fast moving, direct to the point and multiple meaning language. Interpretations of analogies in today's times if overused, would possibly become distorted and the author's intended meaning could be lost. Even though the poems contained in this volume project a whole range of concepts, one certainly doesn't need an oral interpreter or translator of literature to understand them. Perhaps a few poems included can be set to song, but most consist of lengthy metrical meters which were used to capture detailed truths and thoughts. For some reason not known by me, man constantly overlooks the connection between rhythmic-rhyming to memory and human thought patterns and the most successful method of rote learning. It's apparent when every line in a poem or song are often long remembered at all learning levels and with the exception of catchy phrases or quotes the exact details and wording of other written works are generally forgotten . Writing poetry became a labor of love and passion for me, a secret retreat from being a wife (thirty-nine years) and Mother of four sons and one daughter. My family and friends were very supportive and I hope my contribution will serve as an inspiration to others who have marvelous reflections to share.
