About the Book

This book is about heroes and victims, often playing both roles at the same time. The storied characters are common people, generally country people, dealing with the affairs of life and of the heart. There is humor and there is pathos. There is also hope.

This book has poems for men and for women, for the old and for the young people. They are slices of real life served in digestible portions. There are elements of war in this book from both perspective of the dove and the hawk.

Unlike many offerings in the world today, the contents are clear and easily understood. I know that people today will get much enjoyment to reading the poems in the book.
