Sobre IBD

I wondered if this 11th book would ever actually be completed. It contains the poems I’ve written over the last 8 years. It’s hard to believe how Bills death became The Journey and how many different lives these poems have touched over the last 23 years. As with all of my books, this one is dedicated to the memory of a few special people. Sadly my Mother passed away in her sleep on July 10th, 2011. The life changing events came afterwards over the last 6 years including my own debilitating head injury reassures me that no matter what we face in life, every day is a new one. Welcome to the 11th Chapter of The Journey. Peace

    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....

  • The Journey Reflections of a Time Before
    James Lagoski

My friend of 22 years committed suicide on Nov 18, 1993. After writing poems afterwards for a couple years,...

    Most of the poems within this second chapter of The Journey series were written between 1996-1998.
