Publisher's Synopsis
John Louis Cimasi's Verses from a Life, Volume III: Another Collection of Poems, offers readers still more of the lyrical expression and varied themes that make Cimasi such a complex yet accessible poet. Whether musing on life, love, death, or playful allegories, Cimasi continues to delight and challenge his fans.Cimasi's love of music touches these poems in their expressivity, rhyme, and meter-and the last in the collection are in fact song lyrics and a fully noted song. From one poem to the next, Cimasi jumps from the solemn and thoughtful to the passionate and playful, always keeping readers wondering what awaits them on the next page. A cutting critic of human foibles, Cimasi is nonetheless passionate about the enduring nature of the human spirit-a passion apparent in many of his poems. He is as at home weaving classical, mythological and political references into his verses as he is exploring the intricacies of humanity, religion, and philosophy. Welcome to a vibrant, exciting world of insightful, soul-touching, brain bending poetry that will expand your vision and reveal new pathways of thought and some chuckles along the way.
