Full Description
'Words are Friends' is a splendidly
measured collection of poems, where the author never strays from the poetic
qualities of rhyme and structure. The book is notable for its excellent
variety. Some of the poetry is written in an absorbing story-telling style,
such as 'The Awning', which tells the story of two Cubs who are chased when
they decided to swing on the grocer's shop awning, whilst 'Salty Spray'
describes the author's joy at living in a cabin by the sea, and details with
photographic clarity the charismatic environment. The variety continues with
'The Ombudsman' having trouble with his in-tray.
