NOT TOO BAD POETRY: CONFESSING TO A LIFETIME OF RHYMES is based on the happiness, sadness, mystery, and surprises that living provides. Using rhymed, metered, and free verse construction, the author creates visual images of everyday life.

From "Leftovers" to "Snacks," "The Great Potato Chip" to "When You Get Old," "The Bag Lady" to "Tall People," and "No Smokin' Here," humour abounds. Heartache and despair are present too, and terror in such poems as "The Night," with the joy of "Love" rounding out the collection.

Sonnets and limericks, a haiku and odes, ballads and musical allegories make for a varied and enjoyable reading experience. So spend a great weekend with your imagination and give NOT TOO BAD POETRY a try... It's Not Too Bad!
