'Rhymes with Love' is a compilation of a lifetime of joyous tribute by the author to her family and friends. The poems have been expressly written to honor personal celebrations, as well as the surmounting of life’s challenges. These are the things that we must pronounce, when we can, as an acknowledgement of our innermost feelings that we share with each other. What better way to do that than through the lyrical strains of personal poetry, written for a very specific audience, yet universal in all meaning and sensibility. Carolyn Troiano has succeeded in capturing the very heart of her readers through her imagery in verse. There is no better way to tell someone you love how you feel about them than to frame one of these poems and present it as a gift. The author’s poems began as an effort to reach out to others and express how she felt about them, about their situation, and to provide a sense of admiration and hope. We are not in these circumstances alone, and through her poetry, the author reminds others we are here to support and boost our fellow man, no matter how sad or downtrodden they have become. The poems cover a range of human conditions, from birth to death, and all things in between. These poems have universal themes the author brings to life through, as they dance gaily off of the very pages on which they are written. There is a line in each poem that will tug at your heart and make you feel as if it was written about you, or one you love. There is no greater love than the love we have for mankind, and there is no greater language for expressing it than through the language of poetry, simple and sweet. The author attributes much of her inspiration and hard work to her parents, Dan and Martha McKillop, and to Jack Simpson, a kind and gentle soul who once said 'we’re here to help each other,' giving true meaning and purpose to life. The author’s poems reflect that sentiment, and bring into clear view what we all need to consider, and to do, as

    ‘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....
