"On the Road to Haiku"
Darren R Jones has put together a collection of very personal verses in which he shares with us his feelings on relationships. Millions can and do wax lyrical on this very thing, and as we know, the ten per centers would not find their next meal if they did not. But how to do it well? Darren can, and does, here, right now. His style is as my title to this review suggests, evocative of Haiku, not totally, as it does not conform line by line, and some verses suddenly flow and blossom and turn literary tundra into a lush pasture. But that's really the heart and a gold-nibbed pen manifesting and embedding the age old agony 'to love and to lose' into our own souls, via the... More > pages. Darren also occasionally branches out into other fields, and is his own observation of life, and nature, around him. Please do at least take a look at Darren's preview, and if introspective verse of this style is 'your bag', you will cherish his book which you may well find impossible not to buy. Well done, Darren.

"DEEP!" There is a great deal of pain in these poems. The poet truly feels this... struggle to express himself. A beautiful piece of work defining a man with a great future!!!

I am already partial to romantic work and I find this polished, expressive, emotive, and well structured. I also enjoyed the fancifully mythological work you included in this collection. I wish you the best of success with the poetry publication. (I cannot find the rating button but your work deserves all of these stars.)

"sophisticated poetry" I am happy to report that I enjoyed these poems. Above all they seem to be about human relationships on a personal level. Good Luck with the book!

This book is as much about the layout of the poems as the words used. Each poem sits on the page with no page numbers, headers or footers to draw your attention away from the emotions. This book taken as a whole shows confusion, often upsetting, often funny. Beautifully written. Beautifully structured. Well done!
