A Book of Poetry You May Actually Read (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu

Description

If you are looking for the rhyme and rhythm of Edgar Allan Poe or the poetic expression of Alfred Lord Tennyson, you will not find them in this book. Rather, this is a book of poetry you may actually read. This volume was not written for academics. You will not need an arm-load of reference books or a classical education to understand poems such as: Poor Postured Barn, The Death of Robert Bowman, Cello Delight, and About Robins to mention a few. Mr. Kouns sees his poetry as a conduit between himself and his readers. His poetry is accessible in terms of its readability and simplistic themes. He seeks to establish connections with his readers. There may be a word, or a phrase, or an entire poem that triggers a nearly lost memory or experience. Poetic connections may be no more than warm feelings or irrepressible smiles. Abraham Lincoln said, "God must have loved the common man because he made so many of them." This book of poetry will appeal to those persons who find strength in their belief systems, who are committed to their families, and who find dignity in their daily work. Yes, this is a-book of poetry you may actually read.
