Características

This book is an expanded version of an earlier work entitled Wheat Rippling in the Sunlight published by RoseDog in 2005. In this work the Table of Contents is enhanced by grouping the poems into eight sections by year. The primary purpose of this new book is to incorporate ten poems that did not go into the original work. Included are four poems written over forty years ago and preserved by a friend who returned them to the author in 2005 after Wheat Rippling in the Sunlight was published. These poems are included in Poems of the Lost Thompson along with Inner Landscapes and The Gift which were written in the same period. Following is a list of the added poems and the sections they are in.POEMS OF THE LOST THOMPSON 1969 - 1972My Father’s Death in 1968Autumn LeavesHitchhiking in Winter, 1972Truck Stop RideREVERBERATIONS 1975 - 1976Merry Xmas & a Drafty New YearLOVE INTERLUDES 1988 - 1989Couple’s DialogueAPPALACHIAN POEMS 1992 - 2012Moles Who?ValentineDarknessGoodbye, Until ThenThe four most recent poems where included in the Appalachian Poems section along with For a Woman Hurt at Home which was written during the same period.In addition to incorporating these ten new poems, a brief biography of the author has been added plus the notes written for a YouTube video which discusses the poetry. To access this video, get into YouTube and search for Wheat Rippling in the Sunlight.Themes prominent in the poems include sexual desire and wooing of women, spirituality and personal growth, homelessness, and loneliness. Wheat, water, and light are symbolic of life and spirituality in the poems. Love for the earth is expressed in descriptions of fields and the prairie, mountains and the ocean. There are several styles of poetry in the collection including rhymed verse, prose poems, haikus, and stream-of-consciousness. Many of the poems rely on internal rhyme and alliteration or ease of word flow to establish poetic unity, rather than end rhyme.T
