Reckoning of the Pain
by Kimberly Engle Frields (9781424122707)

This collection of poetry and thought was written in the hopes of opening up the eyes of those who do not see. Everything in this book was written from my experiences, my points of view and most of all my soul. Some of my work is meant to challenge my readers to take a look at what is happening around them and make a difference. It seems so many of us get wrapped up in our own day-to-day chaos that we forget we have neighbors, friends, and ourselves--that we need to slow down and smell the coffee. So much is taken for granted today; I guess technology has in some ways put a bit of a wedge in the human condition. My poetry is also written for Joe Schmo who never read poetry, or thought it to be all metaphors and analogies. I try to make my points clearly and sometime a bit harshly. I write for the general population not just those who read the great poets like Poe and Longfellow. I hope that in some of these pages my readers find something that enlightens, brightens, or brings a smile. Poetry is written from the heart. I was told by my poetic mentor that as long as I write from my heart, I will never write bad poetry. Guess he was right.
