Reflections In Poetry

Reflections in Poetry. Reflections in Poetry was first thought of when I was working down in the Gulf of Mexico. Twelve hours a day, five days a week, I used to write during my lunch break or back at the motel. I put together some material in a legal pad and left everything in the motel under the mattress. When I relocated back to Sumter, South Carolina, it was very hard getting started with so many things on my mind. I asked God to give me the peace of mind that I needed to put my thoughts on paper. I stayed up one night until four in the morning writing. I needed that to get a lot of stuff off my chest and off my mind. I really enjoyed putting Reflections in Poetry together. It reflects on those that have passed on, good people whose memories I'll always treasure and will never forget. Friends that I met over the years, our paths crossed and we connected platonically. They inspired me in their own unique way to write about them in poetry. Reflections in Poetry are collections of treasured thoughts from my heart to yours. Enjoy, Glenndell Chatmon
