So I am the author of this book and as you can see from the cover, my name is Pamela McGee Wilkinson. I'm just an average retired woman in her "important years", who has rediscovered her writing skills and put them to use in this book and the other one strategically placed on this cover for the selfish reason that if you like this book maybe you'll appreciate the other, especially if you have young children or grandchildren. It was written 20 years...

Life sometimes takes us to task.
So we seek our knowledge from the past,
Only to learn that life is an ever changing path
that rolls us in and out of the shadows.
Like a captain of your ship a sail,
Without a Beacon, you'll surely fail
To find your way upon the seas of life,
And run aground in tears and strife.
That's why the Beacon came to be,
To shine its light on you and me,
And help guide us safely to shore,
To be lost in life's seas no more.

I chose "The Season: Poetry of the Heart" because of the different types of poems there are. There are poems that talk of love, friendship, pain and self-doubt. Poems that just talk about life, or the natural beauty that there is in life. Poems that even talk about Christ.
The poems themselves can help with many cases because though they are my writings the thought behind poetry can always be the case for anyone and everyone. I know because I've gotten...

It enables you to experience love, friendship, family, humor, inspiration, sensuality, sadness, and/or happiness, depending on your mood. Climb aboard and enjoy a calming...

The found art in “Explode” are poesy movements. Dada (Contrapposto poets succumbing to peaches...) It sounds like Jazz (See Sisyphus scorn at amber headlights in Paris dew...) Looks like Impressionism (is day of rest I worship Santa Barbara and the celestial trip I straddle...) Expressionism (On the Orange Line... I saw dog paws tattooed on her thigh and red daisies on her boots...) And Surrealism (In random chimera conceits I think of blue nights...)

Vol 1. is a collection of poems written between 1996 and 2010. I always had dreams of being a published author and one day having my words available to the world. Saying; "I'll get to it tomorrow" or waiting for the perfect time wasn't going to help me get to where I wanted to be. I had seen too many examples of how tomorrow wasn't guaranteed. One day I woke up and put away the excuses, dedicated the summer to getting my book published.

This book is fiction but has some basis in reality. It is rooted in the symbolism and manifestation of my "trinity philosophy", microcosm, macrocosm, and platonic worlds. The second part of the book especially reflects parts of this trinity.
There is no need to describe in detail the reason why my book of poetry was 100% censured. In addition, my book written about the relationship between environmental science and philosophy was more than a third...

For the past 50-some years I have been threatening to write a book. I've written poetry, political essays, letters-to-the-editor and stories about my life. Some of these are included here. Originally I wanted the title to be "Accidental Tourist" until I found that there is a play and movie by that title. Because I've often found life events and direction somewhat random, it came to me as a good description. Then, because of a need for a new title,...

My poetry book, Bad Dreams of Hungry Dogs, is my meditation on my spiritual journey and my dialogue with the divine. As a poet, I see my job as one who stands in the midst of the world and reports what he experiences from the point of view of the soul. And so, these poems are my soul reactions and responses to outer events in the world in which we live, and also my responses to my own yearnings and questions. Sometimes my responses are angry and confrontive,...
