Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of poetry deals with the separation of generations and the challenges they present. In this coming of age sort of story we see the same story told from two different perspectives. First we have the perspective of the grandfather that is raising his grandson after his son dies. He loves his grandson but as he gets older he sees the separation that they have. The lack of communicating face to face, he doesn't leave his room because everything he lives for is in his room. His grandson loves his grandfather and we know that but he wishes that he could connect with him like he wants to. The Grandson poem tells the story of a loving kid who appreciates his grandfather and loves him dearly. He sees the separation but it¿s just life to him. These poems run side-by-side sharing both of their realities and is very emotionally charged with love and appreciation on both sides. Beautiful moments of the grandson showing him how to use a cell phone, grandpa cooking dinner for his grandson¿s girlfriend and how to take pictures. In the end of the poems the grandson is leaving for college, he sits on the front porch and shows grandpa how to work his new cell phone so that he can call him, take and receive pictures and always have a piece of him with him. These poems can be done separately one after the other or can be woven so that each perception of their reality can be seen at the same time.

Book excerpt: In the bold tradition of the “Misty Poets,” Ha Jin confronts China’s fraught political history while paying tribute to its rich culture and landscape. The poems of A Distant Center speak in a voice that is steady and direct, balancing contemplative longing with sober warnings from a writer who has confronted the traumas of censorship and state violence. With unadorned language and epigrammatic wit, Jin conjures scenes that encompass the personal, historical, romantic, and environmental, interrogating conceptions of foreignness and national identity as they appear and seep into everyday interactions and being. These are poems that offer solace in times of political reaction and uncertainty. Jin’s voice is wise, comforting, and imploring; his words are necessary and his lessons are invaluable. Question your place in the world—do not be complacent—look for strength and hope in every nook: “Keep in mind the meaning of / your existence: wherever you land, / your footprints will become milestones.”

Book excerpt: "Explores the vulnerable ways we articulate and reckon with fear: fear of intergenerational trauma and the silent, hidden histories of families. What does it mean to grow up in a take-out restaurant, surrounded by food, just a generation after the Great Leap Forward famine in 1958-62. Full of elegy and resilient joy, these poems speak across generations of survival. How much of the world do we fear? How can we find comfort and ancestral power in this fear?"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millennials is a book of many colors many poetic shades and conviction. The title of the book comes from my generation the Millennials, a generation that wants to change the world. The beginning of the book contains my epic poem about the Millennials named in recognition of our rising generational importance. The poem is an expression from our age, our group in the fabric of society. How we fit in and how we see some things, how we want the world to be. The poem is separated into four main parts and into nineteen smaller sections. I hope I have done my generation justice in explaining the dreams we have and the passions we hold dear, the strength we feel deep inside our minds and hearts. The rest of the book contains my new and selected poems, 49 new poems in various styles and forms trying to explore the world and life, trying to explain the universe in a way. I think that the most powerful poetry is poetry written from the heart and from a mind that seeks as many experiences as possible so that they may become closer to everything. I have selected 18 poems from my collection "Rain Walkers" 23 poems from my collection "Life Beyond the Ridge of the Sky" 25 poems from my collection "Infinite Realities" 27 poems from my collection "Europa" 30 poems from my collection"Phobia Poetica" 15 poems from "Portraits of a Monster" and 25 poems from "State of Madness" these poems I selected because I feel like they explain the most and tell the most in their emotion. My New and Selected Poems has a total of 213 poems. My Epic poem "Millennials" 49 new poems and 164 poems selected from 7 of my poetry collections, I decided to not include poems from my collections: "Beyond Compare", "World Afflictions", "Fates & Destinies" and "Moments of Creation"

Book excerpt: POETRY ONCE WRITTEN IN QUIET SOLITUDE and then shared between three generations is now offered together in this first collection of poems. In A Nod to My Father, a father, son, and grandsonwith obvious differences in style and depthshow uncanny similarities in subject and vision. What ties these writers together, besides relation, are their reflections on our modern times. Influenced by his early research of Longfellow and Whitman, grandfather John McKinleys poetry centers on the irony and absurdity of the human ego and our place in the natural world. Lee, Johns son, prefers to write within the syllabic style of haiku.. Adam, Johns grandson and Lees son, cites Mary Oliver and Robinson Jeffers as his poetic influences. He enjoys the latitude of free verse but also the discipline of writing in cinquains and haiku to express his social discourse. A Nod to My Father demonstrates that although poetic styles may differ between fathers and sons, what they seek to imbibe and digest rarely does.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Naming the Unnameable: An Approach to Poetry for the New Generation assembles a wide range of poetry from contemporary poets, along with history, advice, and guidance on the craft of poetry. Informed by a consideration to the psychology of invention, Michelle Bonczek Evory¿s writing philosophy emphasizes both spontaneity and discipline, teaching students how to capture the chaos in our memories, imagination, and bodies with language, and discovering ways to mold them into their own cosmos, sculpt them like clay on a page. Exercises aim to make writing a form of play in its early stages that gives way to more enriching insights through revision, embracing the writing of poetry as both a love of language and a tool that enables us to explore ourselves and understand the world. Naming the Unnameable promotes an understanding of poetry as a living art and provides ways for students to involve themselves in the growing contemporary poetry community that thrives in America today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an authentic collection of creative rhyming poems. While this specific genre offers the reader an extensive array of interesting and provocative titles, it also connects the poetry to real-life. In this collection, the seventy-seven poems are organized into seven diverse and distinct categories. They include, African American history, pets, holidays, education, retirement, family reunion as well as thirty extraordinary poems about real-life experience as characterized in the miscellaneous category. Listed below is graphic compendium of the seven major categories: Life is no Bed of Roses, When it rains, it pours, and Living from Paycheck to Paycheck, are not only poems in the miscellaneous category, but describe some of life’s challenges that give true meaning to another old saying, When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. The poem, 365 Days a Year, is a reminder that one day in the calendar year is someone’s birthday as noted in B-Day, Your Day. “Live everyday as if it’s your last, plan for the future and learn from the past,” is a quote and good advice from the Age is nothing but a Number, poem. African American history is another fascinating category. It features eleven very unique and informative poems and short stories. While the month of February is designated as Black History month, the poem, From Africa they came, gives a very descriptive and meaningful picture of how the history actually began. Two other poems, Marin Luther King: the Dreamer, and Obama, the First Black President, both from two different eras, made important contributions to African American history. However, there were many others who paved the way and made significant sacrifices for a better life in, We Stand on the Shoulders. Jumping the Broom, and Living on the wrong side of the Railroad Tracks, are two interesting short rhyming stories that occurred during and after slavery. Education is paramount to a productive life and features fifteen poems. The important characters in this section are the students and teachers. Poems titled, Advice for Millennials, and What Good Teachers Do, tell about the importance of a good education. The poem, Grandparents Memory Page, describes the important role they played in the family reunion category. A holiday quote from My Valentine, poem describes how, “Both candy hearts and human hearts are symbols of love.” One pumps money in the economy and the other pumps blood in the heart. Candy money can create a healthy economy and a romantic heart can create a healthy relationship. Dogs are the boys’ best friends. Three poems in this category describe the love he had for his German shepherd, Doberman, and Maltese poodle. Retirement is just a special time in a person’s life and definitely initiated a new chapter for those portrayed in the six retirement poems. There are just a few examples of the seventy-seven fantastic rhyming poems. I sincerely hope that everyone who reads this book will find one or more poems that might ring a bell for them, bring back fond memories, have an “aha” moment, put smiles on faces and just plain enjoy reading the carefully crafted words in this amazing rhyming poetry-ology book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We Borrowed Gentleness interrogates the innateness of pain and forms of destruction—through natural disaster, through God, through family, and through the power structures and patriarchal violence that embeds itself in language and cultural memory. Poems critique and challenge the patriarchal narratives that dominate American history. The poems leave the question open of whether man, men, a father and son, are redeemable after the surge of rising white nationalism in America. And yet, there are poems that find, still, bits of joy and perhaps a shred of hope. By juxtaposing poems of louder narrative imagination with quieter poems that explore intimate failings within a family, often portrayed with a realist aesthetic, the book attempts to work through the essential fault in man, in men—in the structures that they design and maintain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Vintage Book of African American Poetry, editors Michael S. Harper and Anthony Walton present the definitive collection of black verse in the United States--200 years of vision, struggle, power, beauty, and triumph from 52 outstanding poets. From the neoclassical stylings of slave-born Phillis Wheatley to the wistful lyricism of Paul Lawrence Dunbar . . . the rigorous wisdom of Gwendolyn Brooks...the chiseled modernism of Robert Hayden...the extraordinary prosody of Sterling A. Brown...the breathtaking, expansive narratives of Rita Dove...the plaintive rhapsodies of an imprisoned Elderidge Knight . . . The postmodern artistry of Yusef Komunyaka. Here, too, is a landmark exploration of lesser-known artists whose efforts birthed the Harlem Renaissance and the Black Arts movements--and changed forever our national literature and the course of America itself. Meticulously researched, thoughtfully structured, The Vintage Book of African-American Poetry is a collection of inestimable value to students, educators, and all those interested in the ever-evolving tradition that is American poetry.
