A Gang of Friendly Poems Kelvin Bueckert

An anthology of three poetry books. Of Life and Spirit. Conversations After Midnight and my very first collection, Revelry in Reverie. Of Life and SpiritRadarsoundsrest throughthe natureof bat like twittersvibrating wordsas the master signalswave weary crafttoward harborover ocean shiversA collection of previously published poetry and essays exploring themes of nature, spirituality and the struggle of living in a consumer-oriented culture. Conversations After Midnight. Life sucks! How did we end up like this? What am I doing here anyway? Nothing ever changes! This is a collection of poems that explore the hard questions...this is a collection of ideas that were born in suffering. Yes, this a challenging read...yet, in the end, there is also inspiration and hope to be found here. Recommended for anyone who finds themselves walking through a dark valley in their lives. Revelry in ReverieThe simplicity of a poem left on a concrete step. Where had it come from? Unwelcome memories shimmer in the heat of summer. Travis raises his eyes to search the street. There is no one. There must be someone out there...but where? Revelry in Reverie uses a unique combination of fiction, photographs, and previously published poetry to explore such topics as life, love, the loss of innocence, and the corrosive effects of war. Generously salted with poetic portraits by award-winning* poet, Kelvin Bueckert, Revelry in Reverie is a quick, yet substantial read. *Honorable Mention in the "Unscrambled Eggs Poetry contest."
