These are poems that have been chosen from a collection of over 1,000 poems and they have not been previously published. As in life's experiences the subject matter changes randomly. Five sad poems in a row would not in my view be a good choice. Descriptive poems in this collection will be understood by children, but the allegories might pass them by, without a nudge from a perceptive adult. These poems are always written for the enjoyment of the reader.
