    About this ebook

    The novel and short story often take to the 100-meter dash. Poems, on the other hand, usually take things slow and easy—like your leisurely walk in the park or at the beach. This book of verse offers your read in the slow and easy. The poems in this book may very well tread the reader’s story line—along its clouds and rain and sunshine.
