Poetry for friends.

"Awaiting Blossoms" is a collection of the poetry of Marilyn K. Sugar. These poems span themes of love, animals, love, humor, and love.

A chapbook of poems, a servant to the vassals of pain.

For over ten years RAYMOND KIRK and Todd Sukany have collaborated on poems that they call mirror poetry, using a simple system of sharing a title, writing for a week (or so) in response, and then comparing the results. Their topics arise from the stuff of life: love, pain, joy, separation, humor, and occasionally more humor. The poems in each "Book of Mirrors" chronicle the growth of the two poets in life and craft. This volume spans 27 April 2016 ~ 28 August 2016.

In 2011 Todd Sukany began writing poems about his experiences as a runner on the thirty-five-mile Frisco Highline Trail in Missouri’s Ozarks. These poems expanded to a collection of over one hundred poems, spanning more than thirteen years of running and writing. Varied in construction, the poems are rooted in the poet’s encounters on the trail. Beginning 13 May 2024 (to honor Dr. Scott McNeal and "the interview"), I am 'running' a sale for the next 50 books purchased ($10 rather than $15) Web address for "the interview" https://www.buzzsprout.com/2109102/15075882 Or here: Https://WPDSports.org/podcast Also on Spotify (WPDSports Press On Podcast)
