Do you remember the joy you felt the first time you discovered love, watched a beautiful friendship blossom, or celebrated a landmark birthday or anniversary? Wouldn't you like to hold onto that feeling forever?
In this collection of poems, Catherine P. Snider taps into-and celebrates-the universal experiences and important milestones we all share. With bright, clear language and vivid imagery, Snider crafts short, accessible poems that explore the love between friends, lovers, spouses, parents, and children.
Divided into thematic sections, Poems of Life is the volume of poetry to reach for when searching for the right words to express feelings of love, joy, celebration, desire, or gratitude. Life is long and complex, and sometimes our words fail us in our most profound moments. Here, Snider finds just the right tone to get at the true complexity of the human experience-giving voice and resonance to the songs in our hearts.
Snider employs various forms and styles of free verse to capture the deep emotions that run through life's most significant events and relationships. Filled with creativity, emotion, and passion, the poems collection will bring joy to anyone who delights in the complex beauty of human relationships.
