A three book compilation of poetic works and drawings by author Heath L. Buckmaster.
From author Heath L. Buckmaster comes this compilation of three complete poetic works.
Starting with Pear in a Bowl: A Whimsical Series, Heath takes us through a bizarre escapade of silly and strange poems written during his early years. Gods and Shadows brings a more introspective and sometimes dark view into the world of Gods, spirituality, religion, and night. The compilation wraps up with a short series of sappy love poems never published before.
This book also includes new sketches and artwork by the author, including a new full colour cover art. It's a collection of poems that is sure to leave the reader curious, wondering, and in some cases, on the floor laughing.
Excerpt
The Beast
I duck under cover
as the beast comes around,
I breathe very soft
and make hardly a sound
but his powerful smell
and his wandering eyes
will certainly find me
under soft starlit skies.
He's got furry brown hair,
and his teeth razor sharp
and his claws bent so fine
like the strings on a harp,
and he watches and waits
letting no one come near
is he scared of the dark
or perhaps of my fear?
So I watch and I wait,
for his breathing to slow
and his eyelids to close
blocking out falling snow
For it's hard to be brave
with something so rare
but I'm protected tonight
by my soft teddy bear.
Contraband Marriage, traveling along the hemline of loving after incarceration, is a love story written in lyric and free form, set in reality with a different ever after.
