Because of the complexity of life and emotion, it is difficult to capture them in song. Also, it is easier to explain what poetry is not than to explain what it is, but there is no denying that this is poetry and music in their truest forms. The events, experiences, and people that produced this author provoked and shaped a poet who hopes to one day be seen as a national resource. Each poem in this book has been brought up and nourished as any child is and the author wishes each of them to find relevance in this world by helping and inspiring others.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52409723683089,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52409724403985,"sku":"NLS9780595410163","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780595410163.jpg?v=1758775715"},{"product_id":"red-stilettos-book-ruth-joseph-9780954489977","title":"Red Stilettos","description":"This sensational collection of quality short stories is perfect for the mainstream fiction market.
