Customer Reviews

Exceptional Poetry and fun loving thoughts.

I have read A Trilogy of Poetry, Prose And Thoughts which is a wonderful book for all families to relax and enjoy. Attending one of their poetry recital I have been able to live vicacriously in several different cultures. I highly recommend this book of poetry as a fulfilment for relaxation and peace.

Fantastic Poetry and Prose

This family of poets is sensational. I like how the poems take the reader from one place to the next. I felt like I was visiting a city I had never been to, or to a country I had always dreamed about. Jonathan has a unique way of conveying the thoughts of young adults. Joseph is very insightful in his poetry. Sheila's poems really give you a flavor for island living and food. This is a great book! I like how the combination of the voices of this family intertwine to make this a real trilogy through poetry and prose. I look forward to reading many more of their books. This is definitely a 5 star book. I am recommending it to my book club.

Outstanding Poetry!!!

This is a wonderful book of poetry and prose for everyone to read. It is easy reading and relaxes the mind and body after a long day at work. The different sections written by these three authors are amazing. I commend the family for writing this book as a family project. This shows what a family working together is able to do. Joseph's poems are humorous, Sheila's poems reflect on life and Jonathan is just inspiring. This is a book for all ages to read. I have read it twice already and it is an amazing book of poetry.

Super Poetry Book

This is a magnificent book of poetry. It is inspiring, relaxing and great for family reading. It also motivates thoughts for deep inner reflection of body, mind and spirit. A must read for every aspiring person.
