More DescriptionThis little book contains a variety of poetic endeavors. The earlier poems are from the mind of a high school student, intent on creating works of aural delight- or rather, using a plethora of words to create a melodious poem that has precious little direction, but relies instead on the power of its composition. The later poems are from the slightly more finely-tuned mind of a college English major, who put in just a bit more plot direction and metric devices; occasionally, he played with rhymes to make himself laugh, or to invoke a favored poet from history. There are poems revolving around water and ice; there are several humorous poems; there is even one dedicated to the author's jealous, conniving, and aggressive parrot. Whatever your preference in poetry, there exists enough diversity within the pages of this book to satisfy even the most selective poetry readers. If you've never read poetry, give it a try; if you have, give it another try.
