Light Poetry

Book Cover & Preview Text
My Treasure One day I will realize the treasures that I find Are all the hidden memories I’ve buried in my mind Though I’m the one who covered them in their forgotten place Where they remained for many years quite hidden from my face Mixed amongst the other things that I would soon forget For there are many things I’ve done that I do quite regret Which I have left forever locked and frozen in their time Cold and frosted over never meant to reach their prime They are the weeds from out my past where flowers seldom grow Beneath the grounds most icy path seeds never meant to sow But rarely mixed among them uncommon beauty does yet shine A warming light of hope uncommon beauty could be mine For beneath the snowy crystals lay this tepid little flaw That is when I have the courage to embrace the warming thaw When there is a rupture to burst forth from memory I have the strength to realize the treasure inside me Glimmered little sparkles I will ever hold as true For every treasured memory, is one I have of you

About the Book
Here you will find the companion to Dark Poetry, another of David's manuscripts that well, fits the image of the title rather effectively.
However, this book has been written as a selection of poems with a softer nature to them. The book is basically a poetry book, which has been taken from a larger body of work due to the nature of the writing.
This book has been written with the intention of displaying poems that focus on somewhat elated moods at the time of their writing, in the hopes that some of those expressions may be transferred to the reader. Verse can traverse the silver lining covering the clouds of life. Enjoy.
About the Author
David Gudgeon, aka “The Wolf”, (long story, we’ll touch that in another book), is an extremely dry witted and sarcastic individual, likely due to a flavor for British comedy as a child.
