    About this ebook

    The third book of short poems dealing with daily life. As I go through the daily humdrum of life, I observe things and start to rhyme words together. Sometimes a poem will simply flow out of me and other times I have to find words that rhyme and fit the theme of the poem. But it brings enjoyment to me and hopefully to you my faithful readers.

    David Jensen

    Residing in Germany since 1984 and linguistically integrated into the new society, fluent conversation dwindled as friends returned to the U.S.A. Since a few years, I’ve discovered new medication for my affliction, (see my Autobiography: “Gallant I stand with My Shaking Hands"), so now I’m able to type again. I found enjoyment in writing stories, ergo; I started my new hobby, with eclectic themes spanning the entire spectrum. Sometimes I will know the word in German, forgotten the English word, and need Bing Translator, but with each new story my vocabulary is getting back up to par. So, in the hope that you all enjoy what I write, I’ll continue as long as possible. And if you like my writing, especially if you paid for one of my stories, I would appreciate it if you'd post a review at Smashwords, and/or the retailer. And don't forget to share my link on Facebook, Linked In, Google+, Redit, Pinterest, or any of the many other social media sites.Near the bottom of each books page is “Also by This Author”, but unfortunately it list only the latest Ten E-Books. A complete list is at the bottom of my interview page: simply click on the interview hyperlink below.p.s. And don’t forget: "If you don't know what a word means, don't ignore the chance to look it up!”Greetings from Stuttgart Germany!David
