This unique collection of poems and musical lyrics offers the reader depth and variety. It represents the creative reflections of five generations, connected by marriage, partnership or parentage. With the oldest poetical contributor living from 1897 - 1978 and one of the youngest entering our world in 2011, this book captures a family intertwined through time by the desire to share thoughts in poetical form, each influenced by the era within which he or she lived.
The pages are drenched in exciting examples of traditional poetry, rich in rhythm and rhyme, combined with modern musical lyrics and some clear examples of modern free verse. Plenty of opportunity exists to compare a fascinating selection of writing styles. Alternatively, many readers may opt to simply sit back, relax and enjoy a peaceful poetry session.
Some pieces are powerfully poignant, others may amuse, uplift or intrigue. Many will leave the reader keen to learn a little more about each poet/lyricist, to discover a little about the events likely to have influenced each creation. Happily, a brief biography has been included.
Take a Look Again... is thoughtfully divided into themed chapters, each subtly supported by a small black and white photographic scene, to aid introduction. Themes include: Living or Existing? Space and Nature, Peace not War, Freedom or Oppression? Work and Routine, Relationships and a final, brief theme entitled: Fleeting Thoughts.
