Many Are The Songs

About the Book

Many Are The Songs explores a variety of poetic forms, moods and emotions. You’ll find reflections on love, death, nature, sexual abuse, childhood memories and creativity. Some may touch you with sadness, other lighten your day with a smile or laughter. Most are in free verse, some in experimental forms, a few traditionally rhymed. Just don’t expect the expected.
