*** A LITTLE BOOK OF POETRY ***

Hello All,

It's been a while since I've posted on this blog. My apologies. Life has been very challenging and hectic over the past few months and, life is still dishing out its challenges, but hey, one's got to keep pushing on through as best as one can :-)

Anyway, let's move on.

*** Coming Soon ***

"A Little Book of Poetry" by The Poetress

The book is filled with deep and meaningful verse about life's rhythms in rhyme and due to be published around December 2009.

Here is a sneak peek of one of many verses featured in the book. It's one of my favourites.

Enjoy, until the next blog post :-)

For Want of a Better Word by The Poetress

See, hear, feel, smell and taste
We utter them in such haste
Do we understand the extent of their meanings
When mindlessly concerned about our everyday dealings?

Words of joy spoken in sadness
Words of peace spoken to mar
Words of wrath spoken in gladness
Words of love spoken to war

Spoken words are in formation
Shaping lives with due revelation
Whether visible or invisible
Like it or not, words are incredible

Although words can be heard and unheard
Cried, whispered, mimed and uttered
Loud, quiet, soft and hard
Without them, do we know whether life would have mattered?
