Life is a journey in itself, filled with moments of excitement, heartache and growth, all directed towards a realization of God and His plans for each person. God’s life lessons for our individualized journeys, however, are not always learned in easy manners. Many times, internal and external obstacles, manifesting as pride, entitlement and selfish pursuits, hinder growth and can get in the way of allowing the love of Christ to shine on those who do not know Him. This sentiment flows throughout The Caterpillar and his Maker, the latest poetry book from author Joshua Osime. The collection of poems is not just easygoing reminders of God’s love and blessings, but chilling revelations of a lost world in need of Jesus and witnesses hindered by personal agendas. Several of the poems are self-reflective, encouraging believers to give their burdens to the Lord and be mindful of harmful habits. Others focus on the treatment of others, such as honoring fathers and mothers, domestic violence and being compassionate to less fortunate ones.Each poem eloquently lays the foundation of the situation or experience, while vividly describing God’s intention with certain outcomes that come from His choices and those of a person. Frank in depiction, the poems speak directly to the hearts of readers and prompt them to disregard previous assumptions or mindsets to embrace one that values God’s will and love for others. No matter where you are in your walk of faith, The Caterpillar and his Maker will influence you to see life more clearly through God’s perspective and not be afraid to stand firm in the name of Jesus. By the grace of God, Joshua Osime is a Christian. He is also a minister of the gospel, an attorney and a poet. He speaks in as much as he speaks out. When he is not crafting legal documents, he spends time welding words to build and teach ideas and concepts. He lives in Houston, Texas with his lovely wife and precious children.

  • 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....
