Reflections: Images From The Mind Of A Mentally Challenged Poet

By Brett D. Miller

This book is a very creative testimony of poetic art from Mr. Miller's first years as a poet in sixth grade to this present day. Mr. Miller, like an artist uses paint to create a beautiful picture on a canvas, uses words to paint pictures in people's minds. His many friends and family have loved and raved over his works of literary art, even including one of his best friends, actress and director Courteney Cox who recently said, “I applaud the words in this lovely collection of poems.” Whether you're buying this book for yourself, for family member, or for a friend, after reading it for the first time, you'll want to read it again and again while definitely agreeing that Mr. Miller’s style of poetry, which shows the combination of a strong, spiritual force in both his struggles as a Christian and his Godly inspiration as illustrated by his poems in this book, is such a force to be reckoned with in the world of literary artists while thus certainly earning him the title, "The Poet Of Mountain Brook!"
