Candlelight

Candlelight By: William Lawton This book neatly, without stalling or over representation, reviews the wonder years of the author’s life. This review is in poetic terms and the poems also include a touch of sadness at getting older, but with the joy of romance always on a pedestal, without coercion or style. The poems herein denote discovering the opposite sex, as if it were a surprise birthday party, one that lasts a lifetime, and begins with one’s expectations of going home for Christmas. Not a landscape but a journey through life, the poems in this book do not discuss but rather sigh at love, its dreamy quality and dreamy delusions. Additional poems in this book, not related to the general theme are intended to entertain and amuse, with this artwork on the cover as a “filling note.”
