Product Description
Product Description
My aim in this book of poems and prose is to reach out to a number of readers - therefore I've written about many different subjects, which will almost certainly touch the hearts of many. Maybe some of the subjects will even help someone with a similar problem in his or her life to find a solution - a form of self-help! The first section of poems deals with Faith, without which we have nothing in life apart from a very dark hole, a bottomless pit - nothing! Poems of the second group concern Love - an ingredient the world needs today, more than anything. If love can build bridges, then get building! The third, general section has poems about everyday happenings, events or challenges we all live with or have to face at some time in our lives. Finally. I have included six short stories in which I have portrayed myself as the protagonist - using my imagination wherever it was needed, for whomever I'm portraying! In doing this I have explored the hopes, fears and excitement of these characters. My inspiration for writing poetry began way back in the last century - some forty years ago now. But I only began to be serious about it since retiring to Derbyshire. I was born in Marlow, Bucks - but my late Father was a Derbyshire man - so to retire to Derbyshire was almost like coming home for me. I believe that I've been blessed with a wonderful gift. A Gift from God no less, which I intend to use. I write quite a lot of 'free verse' nowadays, and find myself delving into my innermost thoughts. I hope that anyone who reads this book will enjoy it, as much as I've enjoyed writing it-Beth Richards.
