Sobre IBD

Rhymes and Reflections is a collection of everyday subjects viewed from an oblique point of view. As an example, 'Anyone can write words and even spell with the best, but those with the right sequencing separates them from the rest.' Each title consists of a single word reflected upon differently. Among the sixty presented are Life, Coffee, Fun, Bars, Movies, and Jeans. They represent what an 84 year old, who has never written a poem before, thinks about now. His wish is the ordinary things encountered in life will have special meaning to the reader as well.

The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

    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....
