Poetry Collection--Echoes of Emotions
My 5-Star review in entirety posted at Amazon for 'Quiet, Please'--a poetry collection by Cindy J. Smith:
Savoring the poignant words penned in each resonating rhyme of ‘Quiet, Please,’ the elicited echoes of emotions continue to reverberate long after the last page has been turned.
This poetry collection is subdivided into categories: People in My Life; Nature in My World; Visions in My Mind; Days in My Years; Pieces of My Heart.
The poet conveys painful truths pertaining to mourning, self-doubts, deceit, lies, bullying, disappointments, and disillusions. Yet, she reminds herself to seek light despite gloom, and to savor each day. She voices wisdom in addressing serious issues such as class discrimination and the ravages of war. There are also lighthearted and whimsical rhymes.
In my opinion, the most endearing poem is “Weep” for all of the disenfranchised it encompasses.
I highly recommend this poetry collection which teems with realistic perspectives reverberating with echoes of emotions stirred in the reader’s soul.
