Pleasant Surprises: Inspiring Rhymes for Special Times (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780998310923)

Oscar Nordstrom has compiled a lifetime of his selected poems and verse drawn from real life experices and reflections on life, love, aging, loss, inspiring sights, holidays, nature, cooking, loved toys, the power of words, human nature and many other subjects. Each poem and verse is set on a unique background with imagry that complements the poems and verse.

The poetry and verse is resplendent in its imagry and in its abilty to touch the reader on many levels and bring forth emotions and memories of a lifetime from childhood to old age and connect the reader to something ageless and beyond the confines of the earth and stars.

Like an old photo album or family movie, the reader will spend hours reliviing the stages of their lives and the events that made them memorable, while giving purpose to living in the here and now.
