RHYMES WITH LOVE
The Gift of Poetry
by
Carolyn Trolano
SUMMARY
(from Amazon)
"Rhymes with Love" is a compilation of a lifetime of joyous tribute by
the author to her family and friends. The poems have been expressly
written to honor personal celebrations, as well as the surmounting of
life's challenges. These are the things that we must pronounce, when we
can, as an acknowledgement of our innermost feelings that we share with
each other. What better way to do that than through the lyrical strains
of personal poetry, written for a very specific audience, yet universal
in all meaning and sensibility. Carolyn Troiano has succeeded in
capturing the very heart of her readers through her imagery in verse.
There is no better way to tell someone you love how you feel about them
than to frame one of these poems and present it as a gift. The author's
poems began as an effort to reach out to others and express how she felt
about them, about their situation, and to provide a sense of admiration
and hope. We are not in these circumstances alone, and through her
poetry, the author reminds others we are here to support and boost our
fellow man, no matter how sad or downtrodden they have become. The poems
cover a range of human conditions, from birth to death, and all things
in between. These poems have universal themes the author brings to life
through, as they dance gaily off of the very pages on which they are
written. There is a line in each poem that will tug at your heart and
make you feel as if it was written about you, or one you love. There is
no greater love than the love we have for mankind, and there is no
greater language for expressing it than through the language of poetry,
simple and sweet. The author attributes much of her inspiration and hard
work to her parents, Dan and Martha McKillop, and to Jack Simpson, a
kind and gentle soul who once said "we're here to help each other,"
giving true meaning and purpose to life. The author's poems reflect that
sentiment, and bring into clear view what we all need to consider, and
to do, as
