First 50 Years: A Poetry Compilation

The First 50 Years is ultimately premised upon the life and times of the author. That is, if one's most intimate thoughts and feelings were shared while they occurred throughout the varied and sundry events of their existence, this read in essence would be a bird's-eye view of the rollercoaster ride that their life rendered while trying to remain hopeful, happy, and sane. Notwithstanding such a declaration, the brutal honesty in the author's revelatory expressions has the tendency to draw you into the chasms of each challenge that he was entertaining, self-inflicted or otherwise. Yet, with his steadfast faith and undaunted courage, he accepted his fate and weathered the storms of life. Furthermore, the author intends that every reader of The First 50 Years be inspired, encouraged, and motivated as they delve into the depths of the most personal and dear expressions of his soul.
