To Life from the Shadows by L. Pearlheart was first published in 2017. It is an outstanding collection of short poems and quotations dealing with multiple issues; it covers love, morals, politics, religion, government, warfare, crime, the soul, and an array of other human experiences.
The book challenges the reader to look beyond the masses and towards that spark of individuality that is in his/her inner being. It contains words of wisdom to live by such as:
No sunset winks, but surely be followed by the sunrise! - Try to remember this on your moments of despair.
Love dies if it has no more ground to conquer and suffocates if it has too many spaces - On Love.
Hate, just like love, is a propulsion force; it is also, to the unwise, a defining matter - On Hate.
Those who want to sink will surely seek and find an impending shipwreck. - On Human Stupidity.
It is easier for people to accept slavery if they realize that they actually have paid for it. - On Slavery.
He who says the truth is not necessarily truthful - On Honesty.
The role of the parents is not to become the child, but to provide guidance to it, to walk it through the same abyss the parents walked through but with the help of a light called parental guidance. - On Parenting.
Money is a good weapon against the scum and is of no consequence to the noble mind - On Money.
EXCERPTS FROM A POEM TITLED TWO LOVERS
They were no lovers of things which make a sublime creature a pity
No star royal rose from the heavens the day they met
No banners were unfolded to greet them
Flowers and roses, gifts to each other, they carted hidden in time
They were not rich for poverty of spirit is an exorbitant price to pay a measure
Poor they weren't for in the depth of scarcity they carried the spark of generosity
On each other they set the truest bet the day they met
The candles may flicker
The sun may set
But on the day they met it wasn't just a bet
Of the two mortals the gods in envy stood
For in all their glory as such they could not let go or would
A prime condition of every loving living thing
Two living things, two living things to the divine unintentionally they glowed
A true measure
A beacon to a shattered vessel
The promise of another sailing ship
All that is, is not what seems
All the living things can be
All living things can cease
As they did fall the heavens wept, somber liquids called rivers and embracing expanses hereafter known as seas, mourning their parting afar.
