About this ebook
Songs From A Wooden House is a collection of more than forty poems which will provide both light-hearted amusement and thought-provoking distractions for people in all walks of life.
With titles such as Love Is..., The Tribulations of a Hungry Buddhist Spider and Desert Island Vegetables, these poems can be read anywhere at any time, whether on a packed commuter train on your way to work or curled up with a glass of something before the fire late at night.
Whether you like the utterly absurd Ice-cream Related Injuries or prefer to get lost in the deeper concepts talked about in poems such as Life, there will be something in Songs for all but the blackest of souls...
