This first Edition of A Collection of Poetry: From A Poet's Expression was published in June 2013, I still feel strongly about the content, however, I found some areas I wanted to improve. I know you will enjoy the 1st revision. Some changes you will notice: I added some of the piece for sale on FineArtAmerica.com, you will see these changes in the start of the chapters and throughout the latter portion of the book. I also changed the order to the original drafts order. As well as added more poems than the original book.
Excerpt
The sun does not shine,
Always cold outside.
No one spoke kind words;
Smiles exist only in paintings.
Birds hum no melodies,
Darkness all day long!
As dragons breathe fire;
Lungs black.
For some this place exists...
Picture this:
The moon brought no light,
Heat from each exhale.
Warmth comes from spirits;
Drink anger and it appears.
Black crow sightings are frequent,
Sight exists why?
Addictions are commonplace;
Liver wants to quit.
For some this place exists...
I, on the other hand,
Have been fortunate enough to know you.
Happiness is legal;
It blossoms, it's true.

A REALLY GOOD BOOK
I had the opportunity to read just a couple of these passages and this is a very good book. It's a must READ. I love poetry!
A further collection of poems, many from years in the Middle East, but also the California San Francisco and Central Coast areas (Santa Cruz, Carmel, Big Sur, Berkeley, etc.).
