life changing poems
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Like all of Roger Housden "Ten Poems" series, this one touches the heart and the soul. It also made a great gift for my son who appreciates good poetry. I really appreciate Mr. Housden's reflections on each poem. I enjoy all the poems. Some of my favorites are by Thomas Merton, Rumi and Mary Oliver. Thank you.

Isn't that the truth? In his last 10 poems book he swore off another but then he and his wife hit the skids and this book a result. As one of the poems he writes on declares, "every happiness is the child of a separation/it did not think it could survive." Pretty apt description of how this book came to be. The poems nail all the important stuff: live in the moment; see beauty in what fades away, don't cling; understand the journey is the destination. Great selection from the classics, Rilke and Hafiz and from contemporary and lesser knwon, Bass and Howe. Thanks for the gift Roger.
