The purpose of poetry is elicit emotion through the use of metaphor and imagery. It sound like this book is successful in achieving that goal. This book is worth a look.

As a writer of - some very bad - poetry in my teens, I'm always respectful of actual, grown-up poets. I'm very happy that poetry is still a recognized art form in this day and age, as the world is a better place with its inclusion. Great review.

This is a really nice book to peruse. Although I won't check it out because I'm actually not a fan of poetry. Great review

I have yet to find any relatively good poems that didn't connect to or through me thought I tend to shy from reading or writing them. The eminence amounts of raw emotions that has to be channelled through a person for them to write something so captivating and so raw must be incredibllying stagnant, or constant consider amount of hours and passion that goes in such pieces of work. Hats off to you

I like poetry and your review enccourages me to read it .It sounds that this collection represents variety of styles of poems .Moreover ,I like the fact that flowers,forests ,geographical areas are used as metaphores to deeper meanings like death ,birth etc. In addition , this book may help as media for meditation treatment ,if you reread the poems ,each time you may discover something new, each time you may discover a new meaning.Furthemore , I think that the cover is very appealing and fits with the context.It conveys calm, serenity and spirituality . I would like to have it to my library and browse through ..the pages .. Finally, it seems that it is a good "start kit" for someone to enter to the world of poem .Many people are discouraged due to the complexity of the poems so this book seems appropriate because of the simple writing

I very often find poetry hard to get into, but this sounds like a very approachable book. The changing in styles and format is something different that might be able to ease the experience for me! And by the sounds of it it's a very calming read

It is heartening to hear reviews like this one, that focus on what I consider the essence of poetry, namely, the portrayal of a feeling or a moment, which requires the old fashioned tools: good vocabulary and the ability to mix the word colours to achieve the desired product. I concur that it weakens the work to employ cliches and flowery language.
Reviews like this one affirm that real poets still exist and that poetry will never die.
Bluegreenmarina can keep up the genre flag! There is a species that thrives on this kind of language!
I would also relish having a copy of the book.
