Book Description
Ten Poems to Open Your Heart is a book devoted to love: to the intimacy of personal love and lovemaking, to a loving compassion for others, and to the love that embraces both this world and the next. This new volume from Roger Housden features a few of the same poets as his extraordinarily moving Ten Poems to Change Your Life, such as Mary Oliver and Pablo Neruda, along with contributions from Sharon Olds, Wislawa Szymborska, Czeslaw Milosz, Denise Levertov, and others. Any one of the ten poems and, indeed, any one of Housden’s reflections on them, can open, gladden, or pierce your heart. Through the voices of these ten inspiring poets, and through illustrations from his own life, Housden expresses the tenderness, beauty, joys, and sorrows of love, the presence of which, more than anything else, gives human existence its meaning. As Housden says in his eloquent introduction, “Great poetry happens when the mind is looking the other way and words fall from the sky to shape a moment that would normally be untranslatable. . . . When the heart opens, we forget ourselves and the world pours in: this world, and also the invisible world of meaning that sustains everything that was and ever shall be.” From the Hardcover edition.

... Tomorrow has arrived. The sagacious man was right: I now see the sun with rays so bright. How wonderful a gift the day can be. I am forever strong, and I am free! Lucy Di Piazza believes not in extreme complexities but in the purity of words and their power to touch the soul and heart. In a collection of inspirational poetry inspired by life events and experiences, Lucy explores a variety of subjects that include the cycle of life, why it is fun to exercise, what it is like to walk alone in the dark, how to overcome the rage of an internal storm, why it is important to allow our hearts and spirits to fly, why we all need to pursue our dreams, and how it is possible to have a magnificent heart filled with never-ending love for others. Through her touching lyrical reflections, Lucy encourages all of us to believe in compassion, love, and the beauty of life. The Heart Speaks shares poetry written from the heart intended to touch the essence of others and provide hope that no matter what our challenges, love will prevail.

Book Description
A remarkable Pocket Poets anthology of poems from around the world and across the centuries about illness and healing, both physical and spiritual. From ancient Greece and Rome up to the present moment, poets have responded with sensitivity and insight to the troubles of the human body and mind. Poems of Healing gathers a treasury of such poems, tracing the many possible journeys of physical and spiritual illness, injury, and recovery, from John Donne’s “Hymne to God My God, In My Sicknesse” and Emily Dickinson’s “The Soul has Bandaged moments” to Eavan Boland’s “Anorexic,” from W.H. Auden’s “Miss Gee” to Lucille Clifton’s “Cancer,” and from D.H. Lawrence’s “The Ship of Death” to Rafael Campo’s “Antidote” and Seamus Heaney’s “Miracle.” Here are poems from around the world, by Sappho, Milton, Baudelaire, Longfellow, Cavafy, and Omar Khayyam; by Stevens, Lowell, and Plath; by Zbigniew Herbert, Louise Bogan, Yehuda Amichai, Mark Strand, and Natalia Toledo. Messages of hope in the midst of pain—in such moving poems as Adam Zagajewski’s “Try to Praise the Mutilated World,” George Herbert’s “The Flower,” Wisława Szymborska’s “The End and the Beginning,” Gwendolyn Brooks’ “when you have forgotten Sunday: the love story” and Stevie Smith’s “Away, Melancholy”—make this the perfect gift to accompany anyone on a journey of healing. Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket.

Mac Anderson explains why he chose to publish this book: "Part of my intention in publishing our gift book for educators, Heart of a Teacher, was to honor the teachers who had made a difference in my life. Ms. Bridges, who taught me in the 4th grade, was amazing! She made learning so much fun and made all of us feel as though we could do anything we wanted to do. Years later, I still remember the impact she made on me as a young child."

Book Description
In life, one finds obstacles and barriers that hinder the progression of happiness. Occasionally these obstacles cause us to fall or become distracted. Perhaps it was a lost love, or the peacefulness of nature that prompted you to turn to God in prayer. One thing is clear . . . Jesus is always on your side. Through faith we make decisions that have direct bearings on the courses we choose. Within the book “Sincerely from My Heart, Poems for Contemplation” the author reflected upon many examples of how God has used spiritual influence to guide his own life. “Sincerely from My Heart, Poems for Contemplation” is a book that was written over a span of many years. Its author, Walter A. Wheat, has felt the emotions described in this book. Once a soldier, the author has experienced the effects of both life and death in war. As a father, Walter has looked back and evaluated the mistakes and tribulations he has made during parenthood. As a husband, Walter has known potential loss. In reading “Sincerely from My Heart, Poems for Contemplation,” the author hopes the reader will identify with the verbal icons and connotations of a theme that is based upon love and understanding. The emotions tapped in “Sincerely from My Heart, Poems for Contemplation,” are absolutely real. Perhaps, as you read “Sincerely from My Heart, Poems for Contemplation,” some small memory may come back to you. With this memory, you too will have assurance that God is real and He is alive today. Walter A. Wheat, M.A.
