Exodus coming soon...
(*I also do short Bible poetry but under my name of Gary Avi Simpson, also Gary E Simpson on Amazon, but Amazon does not link to them lol) My Hebrew name is Gavriel. My new titles will be using my Hebrew name as they are released.
I love poetry and have been doing it since around the middle of 2016 when I started my creative writing module with the Open University.
As you can see I have started to writing the Bible using my own style of poetry using the Pantoum (Malayan) form which is usually 16 lines of verse in a pattern of lines as well as rhyming (or ending with a similar ending word/syllable) to create images from each poem regarding the Bible chapter I am writing about.
Read my pantoums like this.
Lines 1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15.
Then.
Lines 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16.
Published poems Gary? well my first ever was critiqued in Writing Magazine its called 'Windrush' the critique is on page 54.
My poems have been used in others so I have been told... but cannot find them! But I don’t mind.
In Christ, Shalom, Gary :) xx
I am from a special needs background and dyslexic. All things are possible.
