Of Passion and Restraint Poems of Love, Lust and Loss by Carrie Skinner

Of Passion and Restraint Poems of Love, Lust and Loss by Carrie Skinner

Life is a passion play that when kept restrained can lead to frustration of the heart. But when allowed to run free can cause the heart to wander into many unexpected territories where love and lust and loss cover the landscape like a primal forest. One can get lost in its shadows or find life in its fecundity.
Carrie Skinner has wandered this landscape gathering bits and pieces of light and shadow then poured them into the poems in this collection. Here you will find deeply personal poems written from the heart that share the ups and downs of a life lived fully – the wonders and the horrors and everything in between. The book is divided into three sections; Love, Lust and Loss and if you look closely you may just discover a familiarity in the hills and valleys she paints with her pen. If you have ever loved, lusted or lost while living within the passion play of life these poems will resonate with your body, heart and soul. Read them slowly and let them bring you to the edge of their cliff where it is possible to either plummet or soar out into the wonders of a life lived fiercely and passionately.

Shine a Light by Nicky Corcoran

About Featured Book: Shine a Light by Nicky Corcoran

Free on Amazon kindle unlimited
£1.99 for Kindle
£3.99 for paperback

‘Shine a Light’ literally shines a light on real life experiences, some of which are personal to me. This collection of poems shows just how vulnerable we can be when nature and fate unexpectedly throws things our way – yes, life can sometimes be cruel!

In certain situations, we have little or no control over what can happen to us but sometimes, we can be lucky too.

Although none of us can escape fate, there are however certain things we can do to lessen the blow.

My message is simple. We need to take responsibility for our actions and work together to eradicate the greed, selfishness and ignorance that can obstruct and hinder the environment and the world in which we live.

The poems contained in this book will leave you, the reader, with mixed emotions. Some will make you laugh, some may make you sad and others will perhaps strike a chord within you and evoke happy memories of your own.

Shine a Light. Like a huge lighthouse towering over murky rough seas in vast, deep dark waters and rescue teams on the way. Would this be enough to bring you to safety? Would the rescue teams find you? Do they all have what it takes? Will they go ‘the extra mile’ or would some of them want to turn back too soon.

Have you developed the strength of mind that it takes to survive? Will you sink or swim or even keep your head above water?

When Told Out Loud

Traumas Left Behind: Heartbreak

About Traumas Left Behind: Heartbreak:

Relationships turned sour are where many of my traumas stem from. Home life didn’t generate much love, so I looked in the incorrect places for it. I soon realized I made an incorrect turn, but the journey was still rough. I appreciate it more because of the victory.

BREAKING Birds by H.M.Roberts

BREAKING Birds by H.M.Roberts

This chilling psychological thriller is written entirely in poetic verse, causing us to wonder:
‘Just because you have the soul of a poet, doesn’t mean you can’t have the heart of a killer”

In a unique and twisted story telling method, we follow the poetical mind of a killer, seeing her feelings spiral into deadly obsession.

Roberts has blazed a new path in pulse-pounding poetry.” -IndiesToday

Silhouette

About Silhouette:

In its lyrical prose and empathetic poetry, Nancy Viera is many people. She is the lover who has left her heart in another country. She is the mountain, where flowers grow, freeze, die, but find a way to bloom again. She is the smell of a grandmother’s cottage, the pain of a childhood memory, the brush of a curl that can’t fit into straight lines. She is the rough hands of a mother, the fire of romance lost in a dream, the silhouette of tiny jars that catch our feelings when “we sin, we love, we move on.”
Beautifully crafted, each poem is delivered with rawness and grace.

Poetically Seasoned by Debbie Chilton

About Poetically Seasoned by Debbie Chilton:

“In this special series Debbie manages to create and capture a spirit of the possible. A world where her words open your own imagination through hers. This sense of freedom she evokes is so very poignant right now, given the global pandemic and lack of movement. She speaks with a unique creative writing that comes from not necessarily her experience on this earth, but perhaps from somewhere else. She is in a sense discovering herself through these beautiful poems.”

Beyond The Darkness

About Beyond The Darkness:

I have always felt like an outsider. A red rose in an otherwise white garden. The one who drowns yet floats simultaneously. While everyone around me was partying and creating this scandalous lifestyle, I was sitting at home with my nose in a book and my head in the clouds. Despite being warned to be cautious of Icarus, I admired him. I suppose flying too close to the sun was worth it if he could soar near the stars. One book after another, I found that literature took me to new worlds, safer, more beautiful places. The kind of places I would only dream of finding here on earth. In a sense, that could be viewed as a melancholy revelation, but, instead, it gave me a new sense of determination. My determination to create a magical land where everyone is accepted for who they are. A place that anyone can visit when life becomes too much or when the day gets too overwhelming. My heart and soul in literary form, ‘Beyond the Darkness.’
