Book Description
For the past two years (2006-2008) The Bridge of Silver Wings has earned a name for itself both as a series of poems published in different e-zines and as a book first published in 2007. What makes this 2009 edition a special one is the inclusion of five new poems: "Angel of Better Days to Come"; "Midnight Flight of the Poetry Angels"; "Photographed Light of My Grandmother's Soul"; "There upon a Bough of Hope and Audacity"; and, "What Angels Call a Poet." Readers exploring the pages of this book are likely to experience it in different ways as they move back and forth between one poetic state of being and another. The Bridge of Silver Wings 2009 may at times appear to be nothing more than a silk-thin illusion --resembling at moments either a terrifying nightmare or a healing vision--spread across an evening mist. While at other times it will register as solid as a concrete sidewalk or a giant boulder. (from author's Foreword)

Book Description
Maurine and Other Poems by Ella Wheeler Wilcox is a clever collection of poems about a woman named Maurine receiving mail, chatting with the mailman, visiting with Aunt Ruth, and doing other everyday activities. Excerpt: "The clock chimed three, and we yet strayed at will About the yard in morning dishabille, When Aunt Ruth came, with apron o'er her head, Holding a letter in her hand, and said, "Here is a note, from Vivian I opine; At least his servant brought it. And now, girls, You may think this is no concern of mine, But in my day young ladies did not go Till almost bed-time roaming to and fro..."

Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1877 edition. Excerpt: ... impartiality is preserved in this march. Some ants must, of course, be at the head of the army, but after a time these turn round and retrace their steps to the rear, touching with their antennae and forehead any ants that they pass closely on the way. The next in rotation lead for awhile, and then act exactly as the first have done; and this curious process is continued till, if the journey is long enough, those who led at first find themselves once more in front. All these manoeuvres may delay the march a little, but in due time the army finds itself in front of the Negro fort. The sentinels guarding the entrances of the fort rush in to give the alarm, and then rush out again, followed with extraordinary rapidity by numbers of indignant ants, who fling themselves on the invaders with violence, the instant they ascertain what their intentions are. The resistance is brave and determined, but quite in vain. The Negroes are excellent workers, but the Red ants are the best soldiers. The attacking army presses into the fort, and for a few moments ANT BENDING A CORN-LEAF. disappears from sight. Red soldiers enter by the regular doors, or cut their way in through the walls, while some of the Black ants resist and fight, and others make their escape, carrying the old and sickly, and such of the children and, eggs as they can contrive to take with them. Presently, back march the invaders out of the fort; but they march not back alone. Here comes the great wonder, Lotty. Each man carries in his mouth an egg or larva of the Negro colony, and carries it not only out of the fort, but bears it triumphantly home. They never attempt to capture the grown-up ants--who, doubtless, would run away from them, and not do anything they were told--but, clever...
