Jean Dube Herrero shares her love of life in Keep a Song in Your Soul Living Life: Little Poems and a Few Pieces of Prose. Fighting both breast and colon cancer for many years before she passed away, Jean lived this philosophy before and throughout her heroic battle. The poems included in this compilation reflect the things that were important to her. They mirror a spirit of adventure, imagination, nature, and the strength of love.Jean's husband, Louis Herrero, compiled Keep a Song in Your Soul Living Life, not only as a tribute to his loving wife, but also as a way to continue her legacy of reaching out to others with hope and love. With many memories and tears, he went through all of her writings and story ideas, finding tokens of everyday occurrences -- her muse for writing -- organized on neatly type-written notes, small pieces of scrap paper, posted notes, and envelopes. To this end, she kept every personal letter she had ever received, including letters from Louis while he was serving in the armed forces during the Korean conflict.Even after seventy years of loving her, Louis discovered more about his wife and her unending capacity for loving others through her writings. Her poems in this book are an expression of her works and thoughts.One of the greatest gifts Jean left behind through her poetry and prose is the importance of keeping a song in your heart, her love of country, and how love is the prescription for living a blessed life. She expressed this so well in a song title that she composed. "A New World of Love," which is written as a poem in this book.

    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....
