The thing I like best about poetry is how it causes you to really think out what you want to say. Because true poetry is thoughts laid out with-in a specific structure. That structure can be rhyming words, rhythmic meter or even shape. The first poetry I read that formed a shape was by Dylan Thomas and I thought, at that time, how one would have to give precise consideration to how you are going to drive home your point or theme and stay confined to the structure. Then I realized that by staying in that structure the reader is forced to pay more attention to the words and will end up with a better understanding of the authors intentions.
I want to thank my muse Ginger for supporting me in producing this book of poetry. Her beautiful art work was an inspiration for a lot of my writing and gave me good passage- ways to deep-deep thoughts.
I hope you had fun and got a bit of a chuckle reading some of the whimsical poems; but more importantly, listen to the words about being a true believing Christian and take lessons from them. May they strengthen your faith and hopefully bring a non-believer to Jesus Christ.
