A fabulous collection of poems that reflect the author's appreciation of things that mattered most to him, and there are lessons to learn in every poem.

A "dangerous game with the fridge" indeed! I'm quite curious to read that poem for myself.

This sounds like a calm, restorative read. Thanks for a great review.

This is such a beautiful book. I love that the author appreciated so much in his life that he wrote these poems. I'm glad he published them. Like photos, these poems can let him and his family look back on their lives. I love everything about this book. Thank you for an amazing review.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting collection of poems covering a large number of topics such as how America is great, love, faith and current events. It might be worth a second look. Well done.

Sometimes we all need a little reminder of appreciating little things in life. Poetry is a wonderful art form in doing just that. I like simple poems that don't try too much. Great job with the review.

This sounds like an amazing book. It's probably because all the poems I heard were from my textbook, but all the same, poems you can relate to and have a laugh is not something you come across everyday. The authors experiences seem to be a boon as well. I would love to check it out.

Thanks for the excellent review! I am not a poetry lover, but this book sounds interesting. I love it is about the important things in life! This is a much-needed time for inspiration of this kind!

I love reading poetry, so this book will definitely go on my list. The forty-three poems included in this collection seem to tackle a variety of topics from love and parenthood to the greatness of America, faith, and the Coronavirus pandemic. Thanks for your review!
