Publisher's Synopsis
77 new poems from award-winning writer, Stephen R Clark, imbued with wit, whimsy, and wisdom, showcasing the imaginative playfulness of Clark, a student of the everyday and, most importantly, of his Creator.From the Foreword by Robert S. "Steve" DickenIn "Home Noise - New Poems," readers can savor Stephen's sensory impressions of his (our) world. [T]hese poems are glimpses into our contemporary society. There are deep, provocative views of spirituality interspersed with light, whimsical views of Stephen's - and our own - everyday world. Readers will delight in Stephen's use of sounds and senses as well as an array of poetic devices that reveal Stephen paid attention in our English class years ago. But most of all, readers will have the opportunity to bring their own life experiences to his works and depart those printed pages with some universal truths. Stephen declares, "When I write poetry my intention is to make it accessible and inspiring. To write what connects with the heart and lifts up the imagination. That, in some way, always points to the Creator behind creation." Again, he paid attention in class - "A poem should not mean, but be."
