Reflections on Poetry and the World by Emily Grosholz Pdf

This collection brings together 40 years of essays about poetry and literature written by Emily Grosholz. The first section includes essays about some of her favorite poets and thinkers in the United States, England, France and Germany. The second section brings poetry into relation with ethics, politics and practical deliberation, and the third considers it alongside science and imagination. The last section is an homage to The Hudson Review, for whom she has served as an Advisory Editor for many years. As a philosopher, Emily Grosholz has written and thought about feminism, racism, and mathematics and science, which has led her to admire all the more the distinct wisdom of poetry. These essays show how poetry reorganized language and memory, eros and experience, and time and place, and how and why it deepens our understanding of life.

Reflections in Verse by William Same Gauthier Pdf

The world lurched, a sudden stop on a once-familiar path. In those disorienting moments, "Reflections in Verses" became my mirror, reflecting back the chaos and confusion. This second collection, "Reflections in Verses: A poetic look at the World", is an offering - a glimpse through a poet's eye at the unprecedented times we all endured. Fresh off exploring new continents in my first book, the pandemic held me captive, its claws digging into the heart of everything. These poems capture the emotional rollercoaster, the world morphing before our eyes, and the way we, as individuals, grappled with it all. Prepare to revisit those strange and transformative days, not with a dry recounting, but through the poignant language of verse. It's a space to acknowledge the shared struggle, the fear, the loss, but also the unexpected beauty that found a way to bloom in the cracks. Join me, William Same Gauthier, on this journey of reflection. Let's revisit those times together, using poetry's magic to weave a tapestry of individual experiences and insightful observations. It's a chance to heal, remember, and perhaps even find a flicker of hope.

Reflections and Poetry to Ponder by Diane Hicks White Pdf

My poetry can best be described as a personal journey lived through depression. From childhood through adulthood I have existed with depression. I have always enjoyed reading and so with reading, the idea of writing poetry came to mind. Being able to express my emotions has played a big part on my road to recovery. Seeing people like myself has helped me give more understanding of how depression affects the mind. Through my poetry I have been able to talk of these emotions through faith in others who have helped me and through my faith in God who has never left me. I try to end my poetry not in negativity but with a purposeful emotion that will give the reader hope, a hope that he or she will someday reach, that pinnacle in their lives that will help them to see beyond that hopelessness of depression.

Reflections in Poetry by Glenndell Chatmon Pdf

"Reflections in Poetry" Reflections in Poetry was first thought about when I was working down in the Gulf of Mexico. Twelve hours a day five days a week I use to write during my lunch break or back at the motel. I put together some material in a legal pad and left everything in the Motel under the mattress. When I relocated back to Sumter, SC it was very hard getting started, with so many things on my mind. I asked God to give me the peace of mind that I needed to put my thoughts on paper. I stayed up one night until four in the morning writing. I needed that to get a lot of stuff off my chest and off my mind. I really enjoyed putting Reflections in Poetry together, it reflects on those that have passed on good people whose memories I'll always treasure and will never forget. Friends that I met over the years our paths crossed and we connected platonically. They inspired me in their own unique way to write about them in poetry. Reflections in Poetry are collections of treasured thoughts from my heart to yours. Enjoy Glenndell Chatmon

Living Life: Poems and Reflections by Robin Hosking Pdf

All life is precious, no matter what the reasoning; it should never be easy to harm another life. There is a difference between wishing harm on someone and causing harm to them. In life we are all uniquely valuable and to be robbed of that uniqueness is unacceptable. We all live in this world and we need to be more amicable to our fellow man. This world is not an easy place; the hardest thing for us to do is live here. Love must start somewhere and that is with us. Robin wants to express thoughts of love to inspire others. This is the mission of Robin Hosking’s poetry. If we love, we live. If we stop loving or turn away from the love offered to us, we die. Mother Earth I love you and provide for you with all that I have I nourish you with the food from my ground I hydrate you with my water From all of my lovely plants and trees, you are able to breathe I love it when you come out to visit with me and admire my many scenes When you swim in my lakes and streams, I really enjoy your company, But you are mistreating me….

Reflections in the Mirror by Gary Bateman Pdf

Reflections in the Mirror is Gary Bateman’s second book of poetry. This marvelously conceived and captivating new book is a literary collection of selected poetry spanning the years of 2014 to 2019. In this book, Mr. Bateman presents to the reader a very interesting and an eclectic selection of diverse types of poetry and themes. His literary focus and approach are designed to highlight the importance and relevance of poetry in today’s world, and to give the reader a true feeling for and an appreciation of the sense of enchantment and fascination that poetry engenders as the reader is exposed to a vast spectrum of ideas, concepts, fantasy, myths, and realities. Mr. Bateman believes in the dynamic nature and symbolic power of poetry to capture the imagination, emotions, and passions of the reader as he or she enters into a reflective state of thought, a heightened sense of intellectual curiosity, and a deeper realization of the complexities and challenges facing the mortal world of mankind, and what lies beyond mankind’s mortal reach in the greater cosmic world of the spiritual and the unknown.

Song of the Self by Ramakrishna Puligandla Pdf

This is a work of poetic reflections, on the world, Self, and Reality. In short, these are mystical poems. They are offered to all people, irrespective of their race, caste, creed, color, and gender, thereby hoping to persuade all people to engage in the quest for self-knowledge and hence of ultimate reality. The main goal and purpose of these poems is to enable every reader to attain transcendence. Even if this work is moderately successful in this endeavor, the author will have been more than rewarded. The author greatly appreciates all the scientists, philosophers, and religious thinkers, who so generously gave their time and talent to read these poems and give their most valuable suggestions and reflections. These are not ordinary poems, but those requiring deep thought and introspection. All people who are in quest of their true Self will find these poems most rewarding. The author is most grateful to Professor Arthur Herman, a great Sanskritist and Indic thinker, for deeming this work worthy of his Foreword.

Ice Cream Poems by Patricia Fargnoli Pdf

Ice cream, ice cream, who wants ice cream? Hundreds of poets not only said a resounding "yes," but wrote about it. And from those hundreds, I accepted the 125 poems you will find here from 27 different states plus Australia, France, Iraq, Spain, and Tunisia. The poems are as various as the flavors of ice cream: long poems, short poems, and in addition to traditional free-verse narratives and lyrics: experimental poems, poems in forms such as sestinas, sapphics, sonnets, prose poems. When I accepted the job of editing, I wondered if I'd be bored by so many poems about ice cream; I wondered whether there would be hundreds of poems about The Good Humor Man or Dairy Queen. But I needn't have worried, I was never bored. The Good Humor Man and Dairy Queen poems were there, of course, but I was amazed by the wide variety of subjects: light humorous poems, sweet poems, lusty poems, dark poems, poems about childhood memories, a poem about Obama's first date, and a poem with Paul Newman in it. I am pleased with this final collection of ice cream poems. I think readers will enjoy them as much as I enjoyed reading and selecting them. --Patricia Fargnoli, Editor, author of Hallowed (Tupelo Press, 2017)
