This exquisite book is a refreshing montage of inspiring poetry that skillfully engages the reader. Its diverse subject matter includes encouragement, insights on life, human nature, friendship, family, spirituality, and even a poem commissioned by a former professional athlete depicting his career. Some of the poems have depth in their message. Some are lighthearted and amusing. Some are surprisingly blunt, and others simply uplift the soul or soothe the heart. This impressive compilation of verse also sports various poetic formats. The common thread that does run through the poems in this book is they're all well versed, having continuity of theme; an expansive, yet uncomplicated, vocabulary; a precise and commanding use of rhyme; exemplary tempo; and an uncanny ability to address the reader in what seems like actual conversation. In short, the poems that grace the pages of this book truly are ABSOULUTES in Rhythmic Rhyme. " Absoulutes' is a clever merging of two words which Christine aptly uses to signify the type of material one can expect to find in this book. Her poems embody absolutes that either appeal to, or directly target, the soul. They definitely touch mine. Thanks Christine!" --Anthony Davis, Businessman, public speaker and former professional athlete.
