Excerpt
There is a Storm Coming
The clouds gather again, like unwelcome guests
Depressing in their greyness, dispiriting and dismal.
The musty scent of foreboding, heavy in the skies,
Carried on the shallow breeze of despair.
I sit barefoot upon the soil
Watching the veil of depression muster overhead.
There is a storm coming, spiteful resentment and hate,
I have done nothing to deserve its fury
Home is not a haven, nor my bed a shelter,
My door is no barrier for the wrath of lightening
That shall strike my flesh and let my blood.
My pain shall not fade with the parting of the clouds.
There is a storm coming my way.
So I hold on with hope as feeble as the delicate flower in my hands,
And I pray that someone without my storm
Can see the beauty of the petals and the hope in my heart.

MR.White is truly a talented man. This book is life in Dark poetry . Truly amazing for one human being to understand so much pain in the world. This book touched me deeply.I will cherish it always and be grateful to have stumbled upon it .Thank you Sir for bringing to light the pain so many suffer in silence. You are the voice we normally don't have.
In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
Each person is but a grain of sand resting beside the sea. This thought sets the tone for Jill Eisnaugle’s latest poetry collection, Beside Still Waters.
