The Dogwood Tree: and Other Poems

By Lawrence Grieco

Lawrence Grieco has put together this new collection of poems, which spans a half century of writing. The Dogwood Tree contains poems on a variety of subjects, from romance to unrequited love, from baseball to anthropology (sometimes both at once), and from Eastern Philosophy to simple wordplay. His poetry is easy to read, but often has a deeper, underlying meaning, waiting for the perceptive reader to discover it. And sometimes, too, there's a whimsical interplay of words and ideas just for the sheer joy of it. He leaves the door open for you to enter a world full of free and unselfconscious verse, where there are only three rules: "Make people laugh, make people cry, make people want to write poems themselves."
