The Heart of a Poet - Richard Ellis Shaw

Words used to link the emotions of the heart and the rational view of the mind into a poetic palate that can for a brief moment form a connection between the writer and the reader. Poetry is the creation of an image, an emotion or even a picture in the mind of the reader. To do this a poet must choose his or her words carefully. The power of one word is truly tested within the lines of a poem. Poetry is the medium that I have chosen to paint some pictures for you of characters, views of nature and relationships. This is a book about relationships, with others, with nature, and with characters, I have met on my journey. As you read my book if you find a piece of yourself in a poem or a memory stirred for a moment lets you smile or even a character who is familiar to you, then I will have been successful in my writing.
