Cold Warmth

Cold Warmth represents the eighth book in what is loosely described as The Life Series, consisting of contemporary poems that cover a wide gamut of situations and ideas - as most everyone's very own life tends to do. As much as possible, the title of each book of poetry tends to reflect the book's general content, to a certain degree. A general theme, but not a script. Poetry is everywhere, inhabiting this world, other worlds, and the spaces in-between: a park bench, a wandering moon, politics, science; and, of course, the human condition, always ripe for explorations and consideration. The poems in this volume are plain-spoken, without artifice or meaning stifled by unnecessary allusions to ancient tomes no one but a scholar has ever heard of, nevermind read. If you can read, and have an interest in poetry, this eclectic array of poems is accessible and understandable. Human to human, emotion to emotion, thought to thought, they reach out and remind us that we are all in this together, and share a broad common experience and humanity. As usual, the books in the Life Series are standalone, and can be read and enjoyed in any order.
