Böcker av Arthur Marinello

Writing the lines contained in this volume has been, despite the pain associated with the subject, in some cases, a singular pleasure of creative expression. All that we do is art, but some art is practiced with an accompanying awareness of its blessed nature.Making furniture, cleaning house, cooking a meal, baking - - - - - - all is art - - - - and fortunate is the person who is aware of it.

It was some years ago.I awoke in the early morning in a state of restlessness or quasi restlessness.Something needed to be expressed. The first line of a poem.And then another. And soon I had a poem.And now, many years later. Hundreds of poems largely unbidden and writing despite fading vision, I look back pleased at what I have done and wanting ever to do more.
