A songwriter and poet, Alma Joan Turner strives to give her readers
great pleasure and hopes her collection will communicate the beauty
she derives from the world. And as soon as you open Poems for
Everyone there is a sense of joy coming from the pages - and a
sense of place, too. Her 'Scarborough Town' gives us a perfect
picture of her hometown by the sea, and 'The No.8 Brickyard' takes
us back to childhood, with carefree days spent trainspotting near
the railway tracks. Alma Turner's happier - if poorer - days are
linked with her parents in 'Ruby and Charles', and the succeeding
generations are recorded in 'Jack' and 'Scottish Isles'. There's
also a very touching poem dedicated to a very special daughter
called 'My Little Girl'. Yes, Alma finds love and solace in many
people and places, and her beautiful 'Stairway to Love'
characterises the love poems that form a good half of this
collection, culminating in the lyrical 'The Kiss that Followed the
Rose'. 'I write these poems for you, ' she says, 'and I hope you
like them too.'
