The poems included in the poetry collection 'Bob's Gettysburg Saga & Poetry' by D Everett Newell and Doug Hodges reveal an exuberant poetic fervor. They are not "random explosions" due to disintegration in society; on the other hand, they are enlivened by a sharp intelligence, attractive symbols, evocative rhythms and sumptuous imagery. As a master of simple and direct style discarding the ornate and the rhetorical, D Everett Newell has few rivals and no superiors. These poems written with consummate ease show Hodges' soft state of feelings and imagination. These poems have a certain inevitable and final felicity that is the true mark of genius. In intensity of feeling and intellectual power, Newell and Hodges are some of the greatest poets the modern world has known. The book also includes quite remarkable and admirable Bob s Saga at Gettysburg Part I, II and III by D Everett Newell and Doug Hodges.
Dear readers, this is my third book of poems, and inside are a special collection of what have turned out to be not only MY personal favorites, but also the favorites of many of YOU. Some of these have never been available in print before...
This book represents a thirty-day period of my poetry journal. Each poem addresses
the dominant thoughts occupying my mind during the early morning hours of a given
day.
