Publisher's summary

This book was written because I enjoy poetry, and I decided to write this book because I thought some of the poems that I had read were too confusing and hard to understand. I did not get any meaning out of them except for some poems by Emily Dickingson, Robert Blake, and A.E Houston. Therefore, I set out to greate a masterpiece that listeners like myself could understand and enjoy.

Yes I did take several years to research and study poems by the great poets of the past before I wrote my poetry book. And yes I did adapt some of their style in studying their work, but that is only natural. So now here is the complete book of my poems that I frustrated myself in writing because I wanted it to be the best it could be and not confusing and unclear as some poetry book that I've encountered.
