Retirement Clock: Poems 5

Jim Bennett

4.9/5 (20666 ratings)

Description:54 poems on the topic of past and present. What would happen if the clock ran backward? This is a volume of other times, of the cold war, of bomb shelters and nuclear submarines, of Formula One races at Watkins Glen. Sad and scary events in the United States, and a couple of Canadian tragedies too. Poetry is about experience. It has the power to deliver experience to you. Retirement Clock explores retirement, the past, and regret for the passing of time. If you are approaching or of retirement age, these poems will speak directly to you. If you have a friend or relative in that situation, it will help you gather a clearer idea of what they are going through. Some of the poems are clearly historic: in one piece, what it was like to camp ‘wild’ before development took over is captured. Others were written purely for fun, and there is at least one enigmatic poem in Moon Dreamer. Retirement Clock includes 54 somewhat longer poems, including free verse, cinquains, multiple cinquains, rondeaux, rhymed verse, one lyric, one mirror, and a compound poem—chosen around a theme. The result was tested with my severest critics—members of my writing group. They were not gentle, but they were thorough, and for this I thank them. As always, ambiguity may be present. You’re encouraged to explore the multiple meanings. You’ll figure this out, as these poems were written for you.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
