Book Description
Excerpt from Songs of the Sunset Trail The Desert When aeons ago the receding waters Of the earth left a barren waste on the Far western portion of this great continent, There arose an awe-inspiring landscape, Where, beneath the rays of the summer's sun An empire, as vast as ancient Greece or Rome, Lay silent and dead, forgotten by God. Beautiful islands, once lapped by the waves Of a mighty ocean, became majestic Mountains in a sea of ever-shifting sand. And then, ashamed of its nakedness, It drew over itself a drouth-resisting Mantle of mesquite, cactus and sage. Where once the fishes and crustaceans sported In the briny waters, creepings things now Darted to and fro under a pitiless sun. Countless years passed, when lo and behold, Man, In search of new lands to conquer, found this Mystery of the new world, and ever since Has paid the toll for his intrusion. The Sandstorm When the subtle wind in all its fury blows, And whirls and swirls the sands like Arctic snows, The gray coyote and the lizard fear Its mystic voices coming far and near.

Pages : 78
Book Description
This book of poems reveals the philosophy of a wanderer who likes to explore the trails that lead, not only to new places, but to new experiences, thoughts and ideas, and new friends. One who believes that through new experiences we continue to grow in outlook and character, and to appreciate life more fully. One who realizes that you have never really known a place until you have made your own the hopes and dreams of the people who live there. One who believes that one of the greatest essentials of a full life is a happy home, but that a home does not consist of particular places and things, but of love, companionship, mutual interest and understanding.
Love and Other Poems

Pages : 120
Book Description
Alex Dimitrov’s third book, Love and Other Poems, is full of praise for the world we live in. Taking time as an overarching structure—specifically, the twelve months of the year—Dimitrov elevates the everyday, and speaks directly to the reader as if the poem were a phone call or a text message. From the personal to the cosmos, the moon to New York City, the speaker is convinced that love is “our best invention.” Dimitrov doesn’t resist joy, even in despair. These poems are curious about who we are as people and shamelessly interested in hope.

"The Santa Fe Trail," and Other Poems
Author: Joseph Robert WilsonPublisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 69
Book Description
"The Santa Fe Trail," and Other Poems" by Joseph Robert Wilson is a poetry compilation that reveals everything about one of the most tragic national highways in the United States. The early history of the Santa Fe Trail, which runs parallel with the Santa Fe Railroad for hundreds of miles, is somewhat obscured by mystery and tradition, but from historical data in possession of the Museum of New Mexico, at Santa Fe, it can be stated with a large degree of accuracy that the trail was started by Spanish explorers three hundred years ago. The passenger looking out of the window of the train on the Santa Fe Railroad will see this trail running for miles parallel with the track, and will be able to people it with the historic traditions which have made the Santa Fe Trail one of the most romantic and tragic national highways in the United States.
