Jessica’s poems were written as a direct response to the sudden death of her husband four weeks before she was ordained priest in the Church of England, and many reflect her faith. These honest poems chart her journey from the first unbelieving days through anger, pain, withdrawal, survival, and eventual acceptance, and even joy. These poems show those who are grieving that they are not alone, and that there is hope for love, life, and laughter once again.

The Panerotic Sutras of Master Stryfe occupies a singular place within Dennis Logan’s body of work. Written and released in 2021, during a period when Logan was primarily known for long-form audiobook narration of sacred, apocryphal, and esoteric texts such as The Book of Enoch and the Lost Books of the Bible, this work stands deliberately apart from his role as a custodian of scripture. Where his audio work emphasized fidelity, restraint, and containment, Panerotic Sutras applies pressure to that same symbolic language.

This groundbreaking Jamaican narrative poem takes on history, faith, sex, and poetry itself. As 24-hour television - belching out the swaggering voices of American hellfire preachers - competes with dancehall, slackness, and ganja for Jamaican minds, Clarice and Thalbot preach their own conflicting visions. Clarice's visions give her power; Thalbot is at the mercy of every wandering spirit. But when Clarice, under the cover of darkness, 'sins' on the beach, Thalbot alone knows of her fall. He sets out to journey to denounce the prophetess and warn the Ninevite city of its coming doom.

Today is a gift - that’s why it’s called the present, or as Ella Wheeler Wilcox says, it’s the "privilege". This timeless poetical work of art is reminiscent of Shakespeare’s "All the World’s a Stage", for both poems chronicle the various stages of life, however, this one ends with an air of optimism and sage advice. The poem was first published in the early 1900s and is every bit as relevant today as it was at the time of its conception. "Life Is a Privilege" is a mental elevator laced with exquisite poetic devices. Nutritional psychological food for the soul.

Looking Up is a lyrical display of the redeeming power of the verse. This life-affirming breviary is the poet's invite to abiding clarity and to emancipation from the often-dismal deliberations of the mind, by way of dipping the human gaze into the mindset of Evolution - the mindset of God herself.

A collection of poems - some fun, some insightful, all delightful - by former radio host, Elspeth Jackman....

This collection of poems grew out of the Covid-19 pandemic. They reflect how our everyday experiences were turned upside-down, shaken out, and landed in a very different world. A world where much of what was taken for granted, no longer held true. A world where so much of normality was stripped away, revealing what was superfluous. Revealing the essential, the most basic of our needs. Often the simplest of things. Such as touch. Each of the poems is followed by a glimpse behind the scenes. Shining a light onto the sometimes moving, sometimes amusing inspirations behind them.

“Siempre que haya un hueco en tu vida, llénalo de amor, pues el amor lleva en sí su plenitud”. De esta reflexión del gran poeta mexicano Amado Nervo nace el título e este audiolibro extraordinario, a caballo entre la poesía más refinada y la llamada literatura de autosuperación o autoayuda.

Poetry of true life.

"A Cinnamon Afternoon" is a collection of 144 poems that introduces the reader to a surreal world, that exists intertwined with our mundane, casual world, where everything is interconnected and exists simultaneously as reality and also as imagination. Visions, contemplative states, delightful incursions in the lands where everything exists as sweet baked goodies, created and induced with the help of contemporary free-form poetry, keep the reader wanting to read more, so he can dwell again and again in the dimension where everything is just a fantasy seen from the corner of the eye.

Jetzt wenn die Glöckerln und d'Markln klingerln, de staadn Weisn vom Lautsprecher dringerln, Reklamechöre weihnachlich singerln, die silbernen Kugerln und glänzerten Engerln, inmitten der duftenden Wurstwaren hängerln, se d'Leut in d'volle U-Bahn neizwängerln, se auf der Straßn halbert derdrängerln, konns sei, daß mia oft nimmer vor Geschenkerln and Geschenk von jener Heil'gen Nacht denkerln. Eine Sammlung neuer und bereits veröffentlichter Mundartgedichte, Erzählungen und Betrachtungen zum Thema Weihnachten von dem Münchner Poeten Helmut Zöpfl.

The title of my book is one of the poems entitled Life Is Too Short. I added "to Waste" to give the title a more significant meaning. People are getting killed every day at a very young age and a fair number of people were dying of natural causes, and I am sure they have not accomplished their goals when they were killed. I have many pieces in this book, and I hope each and every piece will be comfort and enjoyment to my listeners. This is my second poetry book.
