POETRY JUST GOT REAL…
By Renee Drummond-Brown
Reviewed by H. W. Bryce,
Author of “Chasing a Butterfly”
I give you a sample from this book,
Like the message from Romeo reminding
Us to live like “The Child Within Me,” page 51.
Like Anna, page 60, feeling battered
Like a battered fish. Don’t we all at times?
She hails from Plymouth, Old lightly.
Like Mz Gumbo, hailing from Zimbabwe,
Where ice doesn’t grow, writes of “Thin Ice,”
Asking us to read between the lines, to SEE her.
Like Dennis, on Page 72, who knows
The wrath of woman when incited
And the consequences of “Instigating War.”
Like Damui of Nigeria who flies with
“Broken Wings,” seeking the balm of healing,
To fly with joy to spread the good word.
Like all the poets from the USA, and those
From Egypt, Germany, Hawai’i, Nova
Scotia, an international salute to Poetry.
Like me, here at home in friendly Canada
Who, when “After All Is Said and Done,” I
Can say I won, with a hearty Thank You to
Renee Drummond-Brown, Pittsburgh poet,
Who brings us world poets together, here,
For your guaranteed enjoyment. So, ENJOY!
