Paperback. In this eclectic collection of poems we encounter spiritual, sensual, narrative, observational and political poems pertinent to our times. Very simply written, each poem takes us on a unique journey through space and time. Through the poet's own vivid imagination we are transported to forests and fields, sands and seas, but most importantly we journey into the depths of our very own being. The poems vary from very stark dark depictions of the world's current state of chaos as through the poet's point of view, to fanciful journeys created through the poet's own lucid imaginings, where everything is love and light and the impossible is made possible. Through a slow rhythm and flow, sometimes sounding like a child's lullaby, we are submerged into the deepest mysteries of ourselves and of every fibre of our existence. At other times, through quite brutal, direct and often simple words cutting to the core we are challenged to think deep about the nature of ourselves and phenomena.In the first part, The Children, we encounter the characters as they play. They are all different and unique in appearance, age, attitude, roles in life, life experiences and perceptions. The second part, Playing Fields describes the setting in which they play. Finally, in The End Game we encounter the grand finale of the ongoing battle between good and evil as from aeons ago. The playing fields have fallen from grace and have become a hellish place to play - now it seems more than ever before. Will the children find a way to restore humanity to its original state, as before The Fall? I Or is it possible that that person is you? The poet invites each and every one of us to begin to consider new ways of seeing and embracing new ways of being - ways which bring us closer to truth - which in turn empower rather than diminish, and heal rather than deepen the chasm of division which plagues our world today. Read the book from cover to cover, simply browse or open randomly to be enveloped by the love that these simple verses convey. Or brace yourself for some unpleasant truths, which dance across the pages as shadows across the light. Either way, this collection of stories or observations in verse will expand your consciousness to consider novel views of reality you may not have had the courage to do before. Whether to illuminate or inform, explain or entertain these poems make excellent reading at any time of day or night. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…
