Poetry is something I fancy, and a book with unique themes such as love, nature, joy, and sadness is surely a must-read for me. Thanks for the wonderful review and congrats on the BOTD.

I have never been interested in poetry books. But this one seems like an emotional book. Great review

Written in free verse style, today's BOTD is a collection of spiritual poems that expresses the author's love for nature, peace, love, and acceptance. Readers will enjoy walking alongside the author on her journey of reflection and self-discovery and may just find themselves doing a bit of soul searching of their own. Thanks for the beautiful review! :-)

I'm not very interested in reading poetry but I'm glad to note that the book was error free as most poets publish badly written poetry under the guise of poetic license. Congratulations on BOTD.

The author seems to have done some deep spiritual work after her series of losses. Kudos to her for penning her thoughts so well. Thank you for your take on this collection, and congrats on BOTD.

Quite an impressive review that expounded the simple artistic lines interlaced with the authors life canvas. ''Review of a Song on the Way Back Home'' entails reflection, soul searching, appreciation of the beauty of nature and life itself. There are lively preludes, sad innuendos, romantic arias and finale dinnuendos as all life stories end. Rings like a song, ''Poetry in Motion.'' Congratulations to the BOTD!

A Song on The Road Home written by H.N. Lawrence is a Collection of Spiritual Poems.
The start of her career she worked with Horses and when she lost one of the horses ,it affected her deeply, so she returned to art work.
Then in the course of time, she writes she lost her parents and others and lost the desire for art work .All this inspired the author to writing spiritual Poems,
such :
Gaze
Gaze of your eyes.
They Pierce
And I dissolve
Gone, but for
The looking back
Inhale, exhale-one.
Truth is revealed
Gently, all at once.
Spiritual Poems Books or any of these times of books , are not my type of reading. But Congrats to the Author on the BOTD and hitting Number 1 on the Best
Sellers list. :)

The introduction sets the tone well for the poems that follow. Although they started from a place of loss, it is in how the author handled that loss and grief that the poems flow and there is a resilience to the poems rather than a wallowing in the grief.

Firstly, based on the review, it is evident that Lawrence put in a whole lot of work in ensuring this successful write-up. I love the fact that the poem lines depict so many things which include love and sorrow. I also want to point out that I love the book cover. Wonderful review. Congratulations on BOTD.

I have not really been a lover of poetry because it's sounds confusing at times, but judging by the review I believe this would be a good one for most lovers if poetry. Congratulations on the book of the day.

How beautiful it is for one to find the right words to express himself at the right time. They would so fit into each other and can dissolve any kind of defying statement.

The book length is my number one attraction. With 113 pages we get to have a great poetry collection. I would love to take a look at this book.
