Poetrinese is a term that I invented to describe my style of writing. It is a language of poetry that allows the use of short story or tale to form a poem with rhyming content. These poems are written without the rules and restrictions that some have placed upon such writings. It is a fun type of poetry that allows the author complete freedom of both design and content without the worry of format correctness. It is hoped that you will find encouragement from such works as 'A Can' or 'Alive and Happy' or one of the many found in these 14 sections of poems. My first objective is to give praise to my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and to thank Him for His sacrifice of love. I am happy to do so by providing nearly one-fourth of the poems in this book as of a spiritual nature. My wish is that as you read these praise poems, you will be motivated to seek a personal relationship with Him. He is an 'Awesome God' and the 'Creator' who still loves, protects and blesses us even today. Some of these poems are written to thank and pay tribute to the many Americans who have served and are serving this country in the Armed Forces of the United States and especially to those who sacrificed their all. I hope some of these patriotic lines will remind you to 'Thank a Vet' and to give encouragement and a 'Memorial Day Salute' to our veterans. You may wish to take warning about the 'Destruction of America' and pray that this country will turn back to God. Let us 'Celebrate America' in thankfulness. Other poems seek to encourage and inspire or to amuse you to the point that, even on a bad day, you might allow a slight smile to sneak out and bring a bit of happiness to your day. I have written about joys in nature, with 'Pretty Rainbow' and 'The Waterfall,' with 'Baseball 'as a fun sport and have included some activities from the 1950 era. I’ve added silly poems about 'Candy' and 'Mommy’s Pies' and about persons, places, things, the

    ‘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....
