Verse Voices

About the Book

Verse Voices is a second volume of verse by Edwin Rolf, the self-styled “Poet Laureate of Forest Lane”. Compiled over the past several years, this collection includes selections which describe his experiences with facing retirement and dealing with the physical problems of aging. His verse also describes his sense of fun and wonder about the reality of human life on earth and describes many of the ideas where he has found inspiration. Finally he offers quite a few brief observations on his total life experience to date. Taken together with his first book Vice Verses, Rolf describes for future generations much of his total life experience.

About the Author

Edwin Rolf, the writer, and poet of renown, emerged o’er many decades from a tiny little town ‘midst the cornfields of Ohio where he played a mean trombone in high school and in college in bands and all alone. He became a Navy pilot and flew for five whole years, then settled in a valley with siliconic seers. He’s marketed computer stuff for years that he can’t count. He’s dabbled in the arts to seek a different mount. Then several years ago, into his addled mind, the verses started flowing of every shape and kind. He scribbles them on paper in the middle of the night; then puts them on his laptop to make them come out right. So when they did accumulate in numbers quid pro tem, Xlibris ads convinced him that he should publish them!
