Book Description
Translated and Introduced by Magnus J. Krynski and Robert A. Maguire Regarded as one of the best representatives since World War II of the rich and ancient art of poetry in Poland, Wislawa Szymborska (1923-2012) is, in the translators' words, "that rarest of phenomena: a serious poet who commands a large audience in her native land." The seventy poems in this bilingual edition are among the largest and most representative offering of her work in English, with particular emphasis on the period since 1967. They illustrate virtually all her major themes and most of her important techniques. Describing Szymborka's poetry, Magnus Krynski and Robert Maguire write that her verse is marked by high seriousness, delightful inventiveness, a prodigal imagination, and enormous technical skill. She writes of the diversity, plenitude, and richness of the world, taking delight in observing and naming its phenomena. She looks on with wonder, astonishment, and amusement, but almost never with despair.

Book Description
"We need poetry as we need love and company," according to Miller Williams. Making a Poem speaks to us all -- those of us trying to write a first poem, those who have published volumes of poetry, and anyone who cares how the world and language fit together. Distinguished as a poet, a teacher, a scholar, and a publisher, Williams traverses a wealth of topics. He explores poetic techniques of line break, rhythm and meter, and the development of verse forms. In our technological age, he makes clear that poetry is essential to the human soul, showing the connection between scientists and humanists. Williams draws from experience to describe the importance of teaching poetry to prisoners, the value of the university and the small press in fostering poetry, and the relationship between writer and editor. Making a Poem is an intimate, conversational treatise on poetry by a man of letters with decades of practice in both the business and the craft of verse. Readers will take away from this delightful book a deeper appreciation of the poet's art and the vital role poetry can play in their everyday lives.

Book Description
For years, Earl Patterson was his own worst enemy. Though he was able to overcome numerous obstacles in life and maintain a high opinion of himself, when it came to playing football, rocking rhymes, and excelling in school, he tricked himself into believing that mediocrity was OK, and bullied himself into looking at the world through a warped lens set to someone else's view of the world. It wasn't until later in life that Patterson was able to correct his vision of the world, and of himself, and approach life's challenges as paradigm shifts that can ultimately make or break us in the end. Choosing the former approach, and calling upon his years of experience as the leader of a rap/rock group, Patterson set down his life experiences in poetry, to help others overcome obstacles and inspire them to stop bullying themselves. The poems that comprise this compelling collection are honest, raw, and real, and they flow together seamlessly to deliver both a highly personal story and a set of universal truths that will comfort readers and give them a sense of freedom, encouragement, and hope. Poignant, powerful, and profound, Sought Thoughts is a must-read for people who want to expand their horizons through candor and rhyme.

Book Description
Here's to looking up when facing setbacks. Here's to making breakthroughs and conquering adversity. Here's to love, healing, & self-transformation. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Here's to you. REVIEW "Clouded Thoughts is more than a book of spiritual poetry. It explores the themes of love, loss and growing and healing our spirit. It attempts to give hope to everyone who recognize the spirit is the core of their being and can only be healed on a spiritual level. Because the journey seems so long, ways to acknowledge growth and progress to keep from being discouraged are often necessary. Clouded Thoughts attempts to demonstrate this progress by using the theme of love, loss and a rare combination of vulnerability and strength, that makes readers introspect and dig deeper into their own beliefs, experiences and attitudes. A season is cyclical and so is healing. One doesn't merely heal by first going through acknowledgement of a wound, then anger, then grief, then acceptance and, finally one is free from everything. We go through many stages, often many times with the same issue. It is the same with spiritual healing. Trust is wounded on so many levels, but healing is possible and it is a wonderful journey when one can finally look back on it and see how God has really been with you all the way, even in the dark days when you cannot see or believe anything. Clouded Thoughts is a compilation from many poems over the years to illustrate the slow steady progress of one's spiritual life encapsulated in a year of seasons. In one's own life, if you can get through the dark times, you can see the silver lining. Reading Verse by Verse you will arrive at that wonder-filled place where poems are filled with a sense of freedom and joy. The hope is that you will be able to see your own spiritual journey somehow reflected in its verses. Michael Froilan has a kind knowledge and a deep in touch spirituality with love. I enjoyed reading these poems, I must say poems are very relatable. Relax and let each poem take you into a different world. You're guaranteed to come back with more wisdom, confidence , love and appreciation. This is the greatest Poetry book ever written. (The Readera Book Blog)

Book Description
This book is the result of the author's search for Truth and the meaning of Life. After the loss of her family in the Holocaust of World War II, and later divorce, she found no comfort or comforter for her grief. She then began to pour out her pain through poetry. Although she began writing at age twelve, when she became fluent in English, this book is a compilation of only the past forty years of her writings. Her soul-search began in 1961, at which time she produced several sonnets. One sonnet in particular, Celestial Lapidary, revealed to her a startling message from God: that our suffering serves an ennobling purpose. This breakthrough enabled her to persevere. In 1965 she met her Jewish Messiah, Jesus, through the reading of The New Testament given her by a kind friend. Thereafter, the poems reflect her deep devotion to The God of All Comfort who gave her the Love and Hope to live an overcoming and victorious life. In 1996 she began to share publicly her Scriptural teachings, as well as the poems which they had inspired. She continues to do so to the present.
