Page 5 - ALMOST FINAL WRITINGS ON THE WALL (e-book)
P. 5
FORWARD
It is once in a long while that one comes across a collection of
short, precise, punchy and yet sweet soothing poems that lift
your spirits to higher realms of romance; then a few pages later
sends you spiraling down the giddy heights and a taste of love‟s
valley of disappointment.
Traversing this anthology is a delightful experience as the author
takes you on a journey that provides you with all types of
landscapes that one crosses when in romantic relationship.
Margueritte M. Pitjeng or simply Mo as she is affectionately
known, offers all the emotions a young and not so young lass
would go through from the initial attraction, to steady and loving
relationship, through rocky and troubled waters, separation and
even revenge.
THE WRITING ON THE WALL is an anthology of well
crafted poetry, some of which you may have to read twice, or
even thrice to get the heart, nay, the soul of the matter; and that
is what good poetry should do. It‟s amazing how she manages to
give a whole story in so few lines.
This being her debut collection, I feel Mo is destined to go
places in her literary works. I am sure you are going to enjoy
these crisply crunchy poems
