Heartland Inspirations


Book Description

HEARTLAND INSPIRATIONS is an easy to read compilation of the lost art of poetry written in rhyme. There is something for everyone. The actual poet shown on the cover of this 147 plus page book invites you to explore five colorful sections of pure inspiration straight from the Heartland. "Country Cruzin" contains inspirations from travel experiences, observations and just plain writing it down. "He Speaks to Me" are inspirations born out of faith in God and everyday living. Of course, no poet worth his salt can ignore "It's Amore," inspirations born out of real life and hope for the sharing of love. No doubt, you'll recognize yourself, some of your friends and family in "Good Folks." Lastly, "Stages of Life" are inspirations earned, learned and hoped for in this thing we all call life. Some poems will bring tears, some poems will make you laugh and some will draw you closer to our Lord. Most of all, this book will bring you joy.

Once Upon a Small-Town Time


Book Description

As the title of this collection suggests, the poems in Louis Daniel Brodsky's Once upon a Small-Town Time have a soothing sort of lullaby quality characteristic of bedtime tales. Conceived as a metaphoric road trip through three Midwestern towns and across a quarter century, the poems are steeped in an uplifting nostalgia, but without the cloying sentimentality. The observations are fond, even wistful, but never anything but fair and clear and unexaggerated in their effect.
