Sinossi

"It is in the silence that I remember you,Softly whispering in my ear,Like the rustling of leaves on a cold winter night,The stories of a bygone year.
 
It is in the silence that I remember you,By the fireplace crackling through the night,The glow of its embers wrap me warm,Like the blanket of your eyes.
 
It is in the silence that I remember you,Whilst the snow piles up my sill,The last leaf strains against the branches, white,And I wonder, do you remember me still?"

From A Bird's Eye view - Life...

Wadzanai Chiwereza

This book was written over a period of ten years. These poems are inspirational, they leave the reader with points to ponder. The book is inspired by real life experiences and stories from those around me. The book covers a wide range of topics from family dynamics, love, oppression, xenophobia, discrimination. It touches on issues, that people are not comfortable sharing. The book cover was painted by a great friend, whom I consider a sister, a Kenyan painter and art entrepreneur Wanjiru Kibera. We met in France 10 years ago. So I hope this book will be a full artistic encounter, that will enrich and touch  your soul. I hope it will cause reflective thinking.  
As, for me the author, I have a Bachelor's degree in French Theatre and Cinema, both practical and theoretical (Arts du Spectacle/Performing Arts) from the prestigious French University : Université de Grenoble Alpes.

The Love Poems

Ovid

The Roman poet Publius Ovidius Naso (Ovid) is best known for his epic poem Metamorphoses, a collection of myths and legends from Ancient Greece and Rome. His works continue to be widely read and admired, and he is regarded as one of the most significant poets of ancient Rome.
Ovid’s love poems are both brilliant and evocative. In Amores (‘Loves’), the romantic mysteriousness of elegiac love-poetry is exploded by his witty and ironic treatment of the form. Ars Amatoria (The Art of Love) and Remedia Amoris (The Cures for Love) both lay down the rules for the game of love, which both sexes can play.
A.D. Melville’s translations, which also include the lesser-known Cosmetics for Ladies, have been specially licensed for this recording. It is delivered with customary panache by David Timson.

Chattering at School: Nature...

Edward Forde Hickey

"Chattering at School" is a series of animal poems that invites the reader to learn and marvel at all the wonders of the natural world. The poems include fun narratives on the surface, while containing learning and teaching moments as the poems unfold. The book has lovely illustrations and is full of moral lessons.The introduction to "Chattering at School:  Nature poems for children" explains that these poems were written by a schoolboy aged 11 to 18 (1951-58) during his annual summer holiday visits to his grandmother on her small farm in Ireland. She had been his carer and guardian from the time of the German Blitz of London where he was born, and lived with her until the war ended in 1945. He then returned to his unknown parents, who had been unable to visit him in Ireland from the UK during the war.Over 60 years later, the author of these poems - Edward Forde Hickey - discovered them (his own schoolboy attempts at writing poetry) lying in the attic and felt they were worth recording publicly.

Reflections

Mallory Rowse

Lift yourself into a new realm of lateral make-believe world. 
Indulge in artistic poetry that will lift you. 
Become disassociated from the matter of fact daily life that confronts us all today. 
Creativity is the mark of poetry as it sings our senses in appreciation and realises another perspective to what surrounds us. Another poem, another realm of understanding. 
An ideal book to have at your side, whether at home, relaxing on the beach, or on holiday lazing in any of the seasons of the year! Awake to an alternative mode of leisure of novel reading. Absorb and drift away with wordsmith that beckons you into a floating paradise of your very own. 
Poetry affords one to a taste of strength of suggestion that whets the palate very differently to the manner in which a fictional or non-fictional novel cannot achieve. Enjoy your journey through this book as your reading material companion. 
Which one will you choose as your favourite?
