The poems in this collection have to do with the passing of time -
its relentlessness, speed and events - and people facing sadness,
humor, joy, social upheavals such as wars, inequities, corruption,
goodness, apprehensions about life and death, love, hatred, dreams,
disappointments, fears, injustices, blessings, sacrifice, sloth,
industriousness, physical impairments/strengths, spirituality, God,
worry, specific battles in various wars, elation, jealousy, greed,
generosity, meanness, aging - in short, the everyday
happenings/abstractions that, totaled, simply make life what it is
for everyone, both individually and collectively. While the book
includes both free verse and traditional poetry as defined
consensually, most of the poems feature rhythm and rhyme, not the
sing-song type of thing, but serious and consistent style
presenting subjects in a manner conducive to reading them aloud and
remembering. Though this is a departure from the styles mostly in
vogue today, it features form that has withstood the testing of
time while demanding more of the creator, just as in the case of
classical music - perhaps an interesting change of pace for the
reader.
