The Shutters of My Mind

About the Book

        "Shutters of My Mind" is a compilation of poems written in both rhyme and free verse whose themes range from forbidden love to controversial issues. The collection also includes a trilogy on the "Grim Reaper". 

        From the poignant and raw "Metamorphosis" which deals with bigotry, to the heartbreaking "Confessions of a Bully" (I'd rather be predator and not the prey), "Shutters of My Mind" gives the reader an interesting and diverse collection of poems. 

        A great book for those who enjoy diversity in their poetry.
