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.

Risking Everything
Author: Roger Housden
Publisher: Harmony
ISBN: 030742152X
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
“Listen, are you breathing just a little, and calling it a life?” —Mary Oliver This luminous anthology brings together great poets from around the world whose work transcends culture and time. Their words reach past the outer divisions to the universal currents of love and revelation that move and inspire us all. These poems urge us to wake up and love. They also call on us to relinquish our grip on ideas and opinions that confine us and, instead, to risk moving forward into the life that is truly ours. In his selection, Roger Housden has placed strong emphasis on contemporary voices such as the American poet laureate Billy Collins and the Nobel Prize–winners Czeslaw Milosz and Seamus Heaney, but the collection also includes some timeless echoes of the past in the form of work by masters such as Goethe, Wordsworth, and Emily Dickinson. The tens of thousands of readers of Roger Housden’s “Ten Poems” series will welcome this beautiful harvest of poems that both open the mind and heal the heart.

The book concludes with Rilke's reflections on wisdom and openness to experience, on grasping what is most difficult and turning what is most alien into that which we can most trust.

Love....And Other Poems
Author: Hilary Seymour-Cole King
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1462841597
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 87
Book Description
From island to island ... Born in England and brought up on the south coast. Hilary Seymour-Cole King has never forgotten her English roots. She was educated there and in London, where she worked in advertising. She decided to emigrate to the United States in 1957 in order to study American advertising methods, and this led to her marriage to an American who had been a Rhodes scholar at Oxford. Hilary had her fi rst poem Spitfi res in the Sun published at the age of 16 when at boarding school, and she continued to write poetry and short stories. She became an advertising copywriter, an editor of several womens magazines in New York, and then founded and ran her own Public Relations and Marketing agency in Manhattan for over 40 years. Hilary has continued to write throughout the years - whether living in New York or on Shelter Island, where she acquired a summer house for her children, Alexandra, Edward and Vanessa in the late 70s. Then, in the 80s, she returned to her fi rst love, Italy, and acquired a 200 year old ruin in Umbria, in a hamlet called Morra, on the Tuscany border. Originally a tobacco drying tower, this took nearly four years of money, Italian permits, Italian workmen, and so on to restore the building and create a casa di campagna, a little country house. This house was the joy of her life for many years and she visited it whenever possible. Now, at 82, Hilary has retired to Shelter Island where she lives permanently. She has completed her fi rst book of poems and is working on her memoirs of a childhood in England during World War II. Her greatest joy today is when her grandchildren, Duncan, Fiona and Liam, visit her. As she says, Shelter Island is so like England, where you are surrounded by the beauty, peace and quiet of the countryside and the sea.
