Book Description
This second collection of poetry titled Pearls on a String: (Love Songs): Volume II deals with several universal themes: war, faith, love, death, hope. Also, this book shows how I grew up and matured as a poet. In my first poetry collection published in 2006, I was mostly looking inside myself and describing my own struggles. In this second poetry collection, I mostly looked outside, in the world surrounding me, and applied my insight and understanding of human emotions to other people and events.

Book Description
The ability to experience the passage of time is essential to both human consciousness and the enjoyment of poetry, notes poet Richard Arthur DeRemee. And a word "is a package of sound, ideas, and sentiment." Thus a poem is "a collection of well-chosen words connected by a string of time similar to a string of pearls." A String of Pearls uses this notion of time not only to create poems but also to explore how humans experience time. Written over a span of 50 years, these poems examine the effects of time as it passes in a thought, a day, a season, a lifetime, and the natural world. The result is a startlingly insightful collection of poems that allows a reader to explore "this crazy thing of time and space / A funny thing, the human race."

Book Description
A remarkable Pocket Poets anthology of poems from around the world and across the centuries about illness and healing, both physical and spiritual. From ancient Greece and Rome up to the present moment, poets have responded with sensitivity and insight to the troubles of the human body and mind. Poems of Healing gathers a treasury of such poems, tracing the many possible journeys of physical and spiritual illness, injury, and recovery, from John Donne’s “Hymne to God My God, In My Sicknesse” and Emily Dickinson’s “The Soul has Bandaged moments” to Eavan Boland’s “Anorexic,” from W.H. Auden’s “Miss Gee” to Lucille Clifton’s “Cancer,” and from D.H. Lawrence’s “The Ship of Death” to Rafael Campo’s “Antidote” and Seamus Heaney’s “Miracle.” Here are poems from around the world, by Sappho, Milton, Baudelaire, Longfellow, Cavafy, and Omar Khayyam; by Stevens, Lowell, and Plath; by Zbigniew Herbert, Louise Bogan, Yehuda Amichai, Mark Strand, and Natalia Toledo. Messages of hope in the midst of pain—in such moving poems as Adam Zagajewski’s “Try to Praise the Mutilated World,” George Herbert’s “The Flower,” Wisława Szymborska’s “The End and the Beginning,” Gwendolyn Brooks’ “when you have forgotten Sunday: the love story” and Stevie Smith’s “Away, Melancholy”—make this the perfect gift to accompany anyone on a journey of healing. Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket.

Book Description
"In the Fall of 2010 I gave an assignment in my Appalachian Literature class at Berea College, telling my students to write their own version of "Where I'm From" poem based on the writing prompt and poem by George Ella Lyon, one of the preeminent Appalachian poets. I was so impressed by the results of the assignment that I felt the poems needed to be preserved in a bound document. Thus, this little book. These students completely captured the complexities of this region and their poems contain all the joys and sorrows of living in Appalachia. I am proud that they were my students and I am very proud that together we produced this record of contemporary Appalachian Life" -- Silas House
