Opis

The rule is that there are no rules in All That Stays, J. Helen Elza's collection of rare and pulsating poetry. Laced with Frosty whispers, the Traditional is as warm and friendly as a winter fireplace. Elza employs an undefined style that caters to whim and imagery, creating verses that range from vibrant and electrifying to lighthearted tongue and cheek. Discover the infectious and inspiring attitude of never quitting in "If You Don't See a Rainbow," the incredible beauty of love unspoken in "Little Red Haired Boy," the haunting pain of "Little Man-Who Didn't Love You Enough?," the unforgettable portrait in words of Savannah," and the touching declaration of a poor man regarding his treasures in "No Pauper, I." The Not-So-Traditional, Elza's self-admitted poetry practice, reads like a personal journal in the abbreviated rhyming lines of today's social shorthand called tweets. As with all things JHE, this collection is designed to stir more than memories. It is designed to stir emotion.
