My book will either make you laugh or cry because I do have a vivid imagination and this is what this poetry book is all about.The poetry that is written in this book is based on many things about the past, the present and the future. Most people call it Contemporary poetry but I call it Everyday poetry, only what I have written about are things that go on in everyday life and true factual events and some that I call story poems, poems of great imagination that will keep the reader glued right to the end.I have also included poems for children of all ages and some are a bit saucy so parents just skip those pages when the little ones are around.Then when there in bed just laugh out loud.My book has also seen people in all walks of life because I have been around them some time in my life and I have looked upon them both rich and poor and worked with them as well.I am rather a patriotic person so I have included a couple of war poems to remember those who fought in two World Wars.I have kept my poems under lock and key, but now I want the world to see, what I have written over the years.A study of social history has helped put this book together, where different events are happening everyday some I have included in this book.This book only contains some of my collected work; I hope you will enjoy reading my poems just as I have enjoyed writing them.There are a lot of great poets in this world, maybe I don’t have the skill that they have but I see life as it is and that is what I write about.Everyday Poetry,that can be a pleasure to read.

    Jennifer Chrystie
    ‘There’s a touch of both Dickinson and Larkin in Jennifer Chrystie’s mature exhumation of the tales and tropes of family. Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding. The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular. Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....
