Gold Shades: The 'Perfect Gentleman'

Gold Shades: The 'Perfect Gentleman' consists of a combination of poems and song lyrics, based on love and inspiration, inspiring women in situations of desolation, allowing them to strive to become that 'Piece of Art' they were meant to be. The concept 'Gold shades' is to reveal the rarity, each song and poem is unique mirroring the true nature of women. 'Perfect Gentleman' is derived from the notion of a man, not being perfect, but seeks to be the best version of himself he can possibly be.

Fifty

‘Don’t let papers, books and people be stacked,Untidily,And don’t let them fall over.’The strange, fragile and beautiful link between people, their surroundings and inanimate objects speaks for itself in Terry Wilson’s first poetry publication, Fifty.A compilation of fifty poems, Fifty hints at the keen sense of observation the poet holds. In his poems, regular day-to-day on-goings become important acts to derive lessons from, and he uses things of daily use to express his point. In Wilson’s world, the plants look up to him, dogs go about their business, lungs hang like suicide and the trees are made of salt and the ground of water.Beautifully written, Wilson’s Fifty urges the reader to look around and see the extraordinary in the ordinary.

Words From The Wild

“Dedication to conservation is vital for our species to survive and we thank Mark for his contribution via his rare talent in poetry. Part of our awareness in ‘Demand Reduction’ campaigns is: visual art, theatre, music and dance, with words and motions displayed in fitting performances. In this case the ‘Words’ speak for themselves and hopefully will stir readers of this book into action.” Grant Fowlds, Conservationist, Author, Amakhala Founder
Mark Graham, the author of Words from the Wild, has written poetry in support of charities both in the UK and South Africa. This, his second book, is written in support of the Amakhala Foundation which provides conservation education to communities around the Amakhala Game Reserve, Eastern Cape, SA. Many of the poems are humorous; all, it is hoped, are educational. The book is intended to act as a vehicle to raise awareness of the plight of South African wildlife and wildlife in general.

Words for the Restless

Anxiety is all too often a silent battle and epidemic. It’s a journey…with an end. If you’re reading this as an anxiety sufferer, you will get there. The feelings can be a melting pot of despair, panic, paranoia, exhaustion, confusion, anger, failure and loneliness, but the best thing you will ever do is ask for help. Many, many people have the same thoughts and feelings, so you are definitely not alone.
In this first volume of Words for the Restless, Claire S. Ellis shares an inspiring, poignant and comforting collection of quotes and poetry stemming from her own journey with anxiety.
“One of the core antidotes is to always do something you love, and writing this collection gave me that outlet. Having the courage to share these words with the outside world has been a challenge, but knowing they can touch and move others fills me with purpose and joy. This is for you and me, but please spread far and wide. Remember, you really are amazing.”
