The Sad Eyed Poet

By Michael S. Campbell

From the sad eye poet comes an anthology of melancholic and heart rending short stories in poetic verses. Though poet author Michael Campbell weaves poems with tragic endings and sad finales, his stories in rhyme still echo and render a wonderful lyrical experience especially for those who see life for it realities. This poetry collection maybe a tear jerker but it unveils and tells the other side of life.
