Let me offer my thanks to all of my followers on this blog, and to wordpress for offering an outlet and proving ground for writers and poets to express and to learn what resonates with others.
As of today my first book of poetry and photography “Gleaming Beneath the Rust and Weeds” is available for purchase. An independent publishing company offered a wonderful opportunity and as of today, it has come to fruition! In 5 days the book will also be on Barnes & Noble’s online store and on Amazon’s online store. In about a week or so it will also be available on Kindle’s store.
I would be most grateful if those who follow me might consider purchasing my poetic and artist endeavor. You can find it at http://amzn.com/1495462250 It is also available on Kindle! http://amzn.com/B00IVOMQ7M In another day or two it will be on Barnes and Noble again – i pulled that to fix a type. But it is fixed now.
What an exciting day for any writer, but for me – it is a life dream realized. Thank you friends who have commented and asked “are you published” and “I hope that you get this published” you are one of the biggest reasons I have seen this through.
Book 2 will be out this year as well – by December. “Shards of Metal and Shimmering Lace” will offer a bit darker darkness and a bit brighter brightness – just to keep it interesting!
Thanks!
Forever Acrostic Poem – Happy Valentines Day
Forever
F inding another spirit whose hand when placed in your own fits perfectly
O nly happens in the lives of the lucky hopeful seekers hoping to find
R oaming the world seeking that rumored missing piece of their own heart
E arnest in their belief that once found they will be entwined in completeness
V irtually every emotion, sense, feeling made somehow better in their union
E ach part of love’s perfectly crafted pair healing and strengthening the other
R eveling in the knowledge that this thing called true love is meant to be forever.
