Book Description
Most of my poems are from life, love, and Mother Nature. My perspectives on life as I feel them about everything that I see, feel, and hear around me and about everything on this earth that comes to my mindour binds with Mother Nature, with people, our inner feelings, our love for our parents first, our family, then our wives/husbands, our sweet children, and their children. And we should never forget our thanks to our great Creator for the many blessings he has given us up to now, the latest high technology and the Internet, our great earth we live on, about all peoples on earth as we are all from Adam and Eve. As these days, there is less love, which is sharing and caring and less charity around our world for all humanity around us. Ive written about the awful wars everywhere, particularly the revolution in Syria, which began four years agoand nothing has been done about it.

Book Description
In the 1950s, Cleveland, Ohio was the number one music city in the world. It was in Cleveland that DJ Alan Freed first coined the term "rock and roll" and it was in Cleveland that the teenage Henry Niedzwiecki, aka The Ol'Doowopper, grew up with a ringside seat to the birth of rock and roll or doo-wop music. Growing Up Rocking is more than just a collection of photographs and artifacts that Niedzwiecki has taken and amassed over the decades; it is his life story told through rock and roll music. The author invites the reader to relive with him many of the pivotal rock and roll radio and television performances from the Fifties and Sixties; timeless moments that continue to define what we think of as rock music even today. Over the years the author has also interviewed and photographed many of the pivotal stars from the doo-wop and early rock and roll era. Those interviews and photographs are another aspect of what makes Growing Up Rocking such a compelling document of what it was like to be in the exact time and place that rock and roll music first set the world on fire.
