Review of Life Is Unfinished Without The Language Of Poetry 11
I am fascinated by poetry and always look out for pieces that capture my attention. Recently, I came across a book with a title that intrigued me. Poetry is a complex art that allows people to express their emotions and feelings uniquely. According to the author, poetry is a way to communicate the mysteries of the universe with just a few words. The author emphasizes that his poetry can sometimes be confusing and disorganized, and that we can only understand it if we connect with the emotions hidden in the words. The author describes this work with the words "simplistic realism," which is an accurate representation of his style. Don't skip "Secrets of the Souls" after the introduction, as that's where the magic starts.
Life is Unfinished Without the Language of Poetry II by Wanas is a collection of poems that capture various emotions, including passion, personal loss, appreciation of nature, disregard for nature, feelings of the elderly who are left alone in care, loneliness, regret for unsaid words, fear of forgetting memories, and many more.
What sets these poems apart is their simplicity and profundity, which make you pause and contemplate. This compilation of short poems is thought-provoking, insightful, and deeply touching. I admire the honesty with which these ideas and emotions are expressed. Although they are unrhymed, that is the least of the concerns, as they evoke strong emotions that might bring tears to your eyes. The reader will immediately connect with the author's message.
The poems are divided into three sections: the Fourth Dimension, Canyonlands of She, and the Unknown Dimension.
The courage of having to learn to live with and die without, in the poem Brokenness; the elderly whose love knew no bounds, in the poem Rest Homes, languishing and holding on to hope that family would come to take them back home; when time and distance are not a matter of concern as the loved one is out of your reach, as heart-achingly poured out in the poem Beyond Borders, are just a few of the poems from the first section.
The author's oneness and love for the canyon are evident in the first poem, "Most Beautiful." Another poem, "Gang-Raped," captures his sense of ultimate oneness. He expresses his displeasure for the tourists who come to the canyon 'to see' and not 'feel' her, and thus agrees that she keeps the deeper secrets for a select few visitors. Wanas means "one who wanders about the land." When writing about the canyons, the author actually lives up to his name since he embraces and reciprocates her true essence.
The third and last section of this book, Unknown Dimension, has the majority of my favorites, and selecting between them is disheartening. Hence, I leave it to you to look into it. Some of these are definitely tearjerkers.
By now, it is evident that I am overjoyed to have discovered this book, and I will undoubtedly look forward to more from the author. I appreciate the simplicity of the words used and the instant connection to the emotions: grief, passion, loneliness, loss of a loved one, regrets, to name a few.
I have nothing negative to say about this book. I did detect a few tiny inaccuracies, but they did not distract me in any way, so they do not warrant a rating drop. As a result, I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who appreciates complex emotions presented through honest poetry. The emotions it evokes will linger with you for a long time. The poems offer a fresh perspective and an opportunity to reflect on our actions, and many readers may even find solace in the author's expression. I gently caution readers about the mature nature of a few poems.

Poems that represent simplistic realism sound new. Alas, from my experience, poems never struck a chord (other than a 'sure whatever').
