Days, Years to Remember

This book of poems, a collection written over a span of eighteen years either as a whim, a dream or by watching others either through the news media or just listening to the world.

The poems have been passed among family and friends and sometimes to magazines, newspapers and once by invitation to submit a poem to be included in a book called "Western Poetry". That poem, "Hello God, I Need some Answers, Please! Which, I might add, is still receiving much acclaim.

One other poem that has been widely received is "Are You An Active Member? A poem suits every business, organization, fraternity or sorority that gives their membership a boost to attend the meetings and work with others.

The Poem "Life Celebrated" was written while working with senior citizens and observed what they encountered in their later years.

"A Cup Full of Friendship" was written in appreciation of the people in Amsterdam Holland that took very good care of my brother who had lived there in a little Hamlet called Niewschans for thirty-nine years until his death.

"Angel Babes" was a dream I could not get out of my head until written down on paper...after hearing and watching the news on TV where a woman had drowned her two children in her car and blamed it on a Black man!

Overall, I hope you enjoy this range of poems and can relate to some of them, if not all of them.

Sincerely,

Survilla M. Smith
