The Poet's Eye

Más información sobre el libro

Reading between the lines, this book reveals much about the author's journey through life. The youthful, starry-eyed years produced the poems of sentimental, sometimes euphoric, expressions. But, as some wise person once described, 'after going up fool's mountain and back down again to face reality squarely in the face', more realistic language and views emerged. Griefs, losses, disappointments had tempered the poet's eye, but the smaller things of life seems to prevail in the author's unending romance with life, wherein a birdsong at dawn or an unexpected snowstorm, becomes worthy of the sharing. The ultimate revelation is complacent acceptance of life, though not always what it seems, with all the valleys and summits, but an exciting adventure that has been, at least to the author, well worth the trip.
