Poems About Things That Mattered Most: Faith, Family, Country (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798655391147)

In this memoir written using poems, eighty-seven-year-old author Bob Dowell covers a lifetime's worth of reflections on the topics nearest and dearest to his heart through collected verse. His poetry collection featuring family, faith, and country as its touchstones offers lyrical meditations on a long life.

Starting with a trip to the attic where the poems of the past are uncovered, Dowell offers a thoughtful reflection on life through poems and uses their artistry to consider key elements in his own development and growth. In reliving a life well lived, these poems give readers a new perspective on what matters most.

With thoughts on religion through poetry, paired with lyrical musings about family and country, Dowell's words capture the unique considerations of a generation for which those three key elements held deep power and influence.
