Hawaii Four-0

Dear Reader, These poems were written after studying subjects like journalism, creative writing and philosophy at Long Beach City College for two years. After turning 40 and some reflection, I began writing about the future and leaving after the summer. On November 11, 2014, I quietly flew to Honolulu, Hawaii, so the poetry from that point onward focuses more on the island, nature and female beauty. This is my 8th published book of poetry and it contains 148 poems. Most of them were previously published on my blog. This is my 19th published book. I will be publishing more poetry books and another book of stories. I’m writing stories in a book called, “A Brand New World: From Station to Station” now and they are located online at jasongastrich.com/abnw. Enjoy the journey. Sincerely, Jason Gastrich jasongastrich.com
