Always Means Forever Roy E Peterson

Classical poetry is a passion and an art that freezes thoughts in time for viewing in the future. The beauty of an allegorical allusion brings life and laughter into alignment with inspiring words that rhyme. Painting portraits that describe feelings perpetuates in the memory images of fantasy and romance. Reading them over and over leads to discovery of clues the poet left like footprints that are discovered where none have gone before. Join me in this world of timeless circumstance where the magician is the poet who deftly pulls off a trick while creating an illusion. Four new Love Sonnets in Shakespearean format are a perfect match in rhyme and meter to his classics. You be the judge of how closely they approach the master in depth of thought. The poem of Boudica is of the greatest warrior queen from the past who almost succeeded in running the Romans out of the British Isles. The Playtime Section is filled with ten humorous poems with groundhogs, cats, aand biscuits with sausage gravy among the subjects. Social media critique includes hit and run clickers and posters without hosters. Even the serious section is light hearted with poems about Sean the Gian Lepruchuan and the Seven Dwarves of Old Age. A new Texas tale is told of how Paul Bunyan met Pecos Bill and why his cow turned blue. Then I present how precious are your thoughts, the naked truth and when poets write what do they mean."Always Means Forever" removes the dimension of time with clever concepts that stretch the imagination with glimpses into a future fulfilled.
