Poems of Gratitude


Book Description

Poems of Gratitude is a unique anthology of poetry from around the world and through the ages celebrating thanksgiving in its many secular and spiritual forms. For centuries, poets in all cultures have offered eloquent thanks and praise for the people and things of this world. The voices collected here range from Sappho, Horace, and Rumi to Shakespeare and Milton, from Wordsworth, Rilke, Yeats, Rossetti, and Dickinson to Czesław Miłosz, Langston Hughes, Yehuda Amichai, Anne Sexton, W. S. Merwin, Maya Angelou, and many more. Such beloved favorites as Gerard Manley Hopkins’s “Pied Beauty,” Robert Frost’s “Nothing Gold Can Stay,” Constantine Cavafy’s “Ithaka,” and Adam Zagajewski’s “Try to Praise the Mutilated World,” mingle with classics from China and Japan, and with traditional Navajo, Aztec, Inuit, and Iroquois poems. Devotional lyrics drawn from the major religious traditions of the world find a place here alongside poetic tributes to autumn and the harvest season that draw attention to nature’s bounty and poignant beauty as winter approaches. The result is a splendidly varied literary feast that honors and affirms the joy in our lives while acknowledging the sorrows and losses that give that joy its keenness.

Poems from the Heart


Book Description

I would like to introduce myself. My name is Doreen Kovach. I have experienced almost every stage in life. I am an only child. This brings with it a certain perspective. I have been exposed to a great education and had the privilege to embark on numerous travel experiences here and abroad. In my travels I have met some very influential people. Of which two of them were Mother Teresa; who is now Blessed; and the late Cardinal O’Connor. I can also speak Spanish fluently. This allows me to converse with people of varied ethnic backgrounds. As with any person with a free spirit who wishes to experience as many aspects of life as possible, I have at times gone astray—off the beaten path—or a Frost would say “The Road Not Taken- and that has made all the difference”. But this the price one must pay. I have been writing poetry since I was a little girl. I am a member of the Famous Poet’s Society. In this capacity I have won the Famous Poet’s Award for the years 2002 and 2003. 1 addition I have also won the Shakespearean Trophy Award for Excellence for the year 2003. Now I am embarking on a new path. This is my first book of poems. It is a compilation of all the experiences that I have encountered since I was a little girl until the present. The book content consist of such topics as religion, nature, animals, political, personal emotions and famous people amongst other things. All in all, from my poetry, I’d like everyone to know the “REAL ME”. So I close with “Paperback Writer” Dear Sir or Madam Will you read my book? It took me years to write Will you take a look? In essence, I would love for each of you who reads the jacket to consider buying my book. Sincerely; Doreen Kovach
