    About this ebook

    The poems in this book address a prolific number of subjects that range from politics to esthetics. Most of the work is fictional. The verses rejoice in expressing the good, the clean and the romantic that make up human existence. A large number of them end in punch lines that will leave an indelible imprint on readers who may want to add them to their arsenal of quotes.

    The poems are short, so that you can enjoy many of them during your lunch hour, away from the stress and strain of the work environment, or while waiting at a bus stop or waiting in a lounge prior to a meeting, or even use them as a panacea for a mood change. The author believes that a poem does not necessarily have to be sugary or sappy. He believes instead that it should make one sit up and take notice. It should produce laughter, anger, annoyance, indignation, tears and joy; but above all it should provoke thought.

    If you are the kind of reader who believes in combining spirituality with the power of the human mind then this book is especially for you. Enjoy!
