Great poetry assails the senses and full range of human emotion. Eternal Spring contains ten sections with poetry to make everyone laugh as in Happy World and Fun for All (Parts I and II); consider Lessons of Life (Part III); relate to Romantic Refrains and Live and Love (Parts IV and V); understand why the author does not write in blank verse (Part VI); become spellbound with the Preternatural (Part VII), realize the effects of old age in Suddenly Winter (Section VIII); react to a range of issues in What Else (Part IX); and reflect on memories, including Chocolate Cherry Christmas and Leroy the Lucky Leprechaun in Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas (Part X). Along the way the reader will become engrossed and enthralled by one of the great rhyme and meter poets of the early 21st Century who compares to Poe, Frost, Longfellow, and Kilmer. His romantic love poems, Tonight I Sail the Dreamy Sea and I Believe in Miracles 'Cause I Believe in You, are in the tradition of Byron, Keats, and Shelley. In My Epitaph the ending will moisten the eyes of the discerning.Judge, Writer's Digest 21st Annual Self-Published Book Awards comment on his previous book American Heritage Poetry Collection:“American Heritage… represents a major achievement for Roy E.
