Poetry is often pigeonholed as merely serious reading, but as any good writer knows, the poetic form can be as playful as it can be grave. Award-winning poet C. Douglas Taylor goes a step further by composing verses for an even broader audience that includes children as well as adults. Touching on a wide range of topics and incorporating various poetic styles, Poetry & Art presents a selection of Taylor's poems and songs, written over many years, paired with beautiful art created by his wife, artist Catherine Wright Taylor. Whether you enjoy limericks, odes to family, contemplations of war and natural disasters, verses on travel, or love poems, this remarkable collection will quickly become a well-used favorite on your bookshelf. Provoking laughter, tears, thankfulness, and questions, Taylor's lines have a lingering quality that you can't help but remember.
