For more than fifty years, Steven R. Drennon has been crafting words that capture the heart's deepest emotions. A poet and songwriter with over 1,000 published poems and lyrics across multiple collections, he continues his lifelong journey of storytelling in Say Please, a brand-new volume featuring 100 original song lyrics.
This collection blends the artistry of poetry with the raw honesty of country music, offering lyrics that speak of love, loss, longing, resilience, and the timeless search for connection. Each piece stands on its own as poetry while also carrying the rhythm and cadence of songs waiting to be sung.
Over the years, Steven R. Drennon has published six books of poetry, each containing 100 original works, as well as two expansive collections, each with 450 poems and lyrics. His words have found life on the page and, more recently, in music itself, as he began setting his lyrics to melodies and releasing them as country songs. His songwriting draws inspiration from the traditions of classic country music, where storytelling reigns supreme, yet his work resonates with contemporary emotion and accessibility.
Say Please continues this legacy, inviting readers and listeners alike into a world where every verse is infused with vulnerability and truth.
