Publisher's Synopsis
2005 is a collection of classical poetry, composed by John Mullin who is an acknowledged master of the craft. 100 poems comprise the contents which offer a full range of poetic expression from 14-line Sonnets to Odes and others of more epic proportions. All written, it must be said, during the year 2005 in both Ireland and America.Herein, life is detailed in so many of its less-flattering aspects with the occasional triumph lending a measure of balance to the on-going odyssey. Mortality, its hopes and fears, its dreams and disappointments, is chronicled by classical line and verse to the pleasing rhythms of rhyme and meter. A unique reading experience is this which celebrates the joys and sorrows as seen by the poet during the year 2005.
