A flawless collection of pearls from the ocean of the
Poet set in a sublime royal jewel to enrich THE AMERICAN FINE LETTERS and the treasure of Poetry.

In gratitude and admiration,

If the "Smoking Poet" is a book to come then I must own it. Now that is 3 of your books I must own, and sadly my 30-year glorified music hobby has beaten me down financially. But I will get them.
"Tybee Island Love Storm" and "Angel of Earth Days and Seasons" are like back to back hits that should be released as singles. But that is ignoring the greatness of the rest of this short collection...
I don't know what took me so long to discover you... I guess since 1997 I've been asleep in a dream from which I didn't want to wake up...
You certainly deserve those awards... I once I was almost approaching being a true poet, but I let music take me off... You are one, I say that not from any ego but from what I hear in your verse...
Best, michael guy

an interesting collection The Smoking Poet, powerful stuff Saludos

You are a true poet and I have never read anything from you that didn't impress and enlarge me as a person and a poet. On the page you linked your birthday poem was my favorite though all the poems are exceptional, Aberjhani.

What a blessing you & your poems are to AD! All the best, love Holly

"I weep for the twilight when your starlit heat
destroyed the chains of my hungry desperation"

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :D

Reading you is a feast for all the senses; you are definitely one of my favorites here! And that pic isn't half bad either....:)

enjoyed reading your talented work ...

All your poems are a delight to read and feel what is being said. Carl Sandburg could have learned from your masterful strokes in words that paint an image on the readers mind. May your success flourish in the art of poetry.

I must say, I couldn't say, which was my favorite...?
Every single poem is absolutely moving, thought-provoking and part of a reality in today's society that we have seen, heard, felt, or been actually touched by! Well done, Aberjhani~ well done...
Good luck with your magnificient Blessing~ He brought you here for a reason...now write!:)
Love and Peace~

very nice, Aberjhani....

What a wonderful treat you have placed here for us to consume into our being. It is as though you have scraped the dirt from between the segments of sidewalks, rubbed it between your fingers and absorbed a bit of all who ever tread there. Your eyes are the windows to all of time, to all of life and your quill a skilled instrument of delivery; birthing thought that paints the world and changes the lives of all who experience your creations. Fantastic writings.
Take care,
Sherry

Thank you Aberjhani for this gourmet feast you gave me for Sunday Brunch! I feel as Ron does you most definately are a cut above. Since I finished with your last poem..."A Poem That Knew No Better" Let me say it is the best poem I've read on that topic and one I'll keep for further reading. Bless you!

All the best to you,
ET

your words have left me emotional and speechless, thoughtful and pensive-your words of willa mae--(i hope i got thast right) tell of an amazing woman whos story with so many others need to be shared--we need to know each others as well as our own histories and you share it so well-i cannot say enough--you do an amazing job

Congrats. Your poetry is a cut above and needs a wider audience.

Ron
