Feelings

Feelings by David Peter Malin Maxfield is a poignant collection of poetry that delves deep into the human heart. Born in Tickhill, Yorkshire, in 1948, Maxfield brings a lifetime of experiences to his work, offering a rich tapestry of emotions that resonate with readers of all backgrounds. His poems traverse a wide range of themes, from tributes to beloved figures like Princess Diana and Queen Elizabeth II, to reflections on nature, love, loss, and the human condition.

Through his verses, Maxfield explores life’s most profound moments, encapsulating the essence of joy, sorrow, hope, and despair with remarkable clarity and depth. His work serves as a testament to the power of poetry to capture the complexities of the human spirit, making Feelings a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the emotional landscapes we all navigate. Whether it’s the raw emotion of ‘Suicide’ and ‘Lonely Heart’ or the uplifting spirit of ‘Spring Love’ and ‘First Christmas,’ each poem in this collection is a window into the soul, offering a unique perspective on life’s many facets. This book is a journey through the heart, crafted by a poet who writes with authenticity and passion.

The Journey

For Antonatie Jemwa, The Journey, “…depicts the reality of events that each individual can relate to; it points out to positivity in the grand experience of life as it unfolds each chapter, just as each season, in a lifetime.”

Informed by faith, the poems have a common theme of love, of how enhancing and revitalising it can be, and yet at the same time so fragile. Grouped under headings like ‘Family’, ‘Dreams’, ‘Character’ and ‘Gone’, Jemwa shines a light on our interactions with the world, both metaphysical and real, which make The Journey a lottery that perhaps can only find an understanding through faith.

The Journey is a meditation, a sensitive look at our condition through the instrument of poetry.

The Ghost at Birkbeck Station and Other Terse Verse

In The Ghost at Birbeck Station Janet Ambrose offers a collection of poems formed by her early years in WWII, her life in politics and her life with dogs (amongst other things). The poetry views the world through a humorous lens, even the eponymous poem which relates an unnerving tale of contact with a ‘ghost' offers comic relief through a trick of light. There are doodlebugs and leaky dogs and run-ins with local authority. And there is an analysis of the Thatcher years from the perspective of one who was not too enamoured by the social contribution of the Iron Lady.

It offers hope when it feels like there is none, comfort in a time of pain and acts as a positive reminder of those who have passed through the veil of life.Poems for Loved Ones is a collection of 50 heartfelt poems written with love and compassion for all those who are grieving or remembering. It is the author’s hope that this book will bring inner peace and healing and that it will help you to reconcile the idea that:“Like Birth - Death is Just a Change of Worlds on Our Journey to Enlightenment” - Kenzo Amariyo

Melodrama

Imagine trying to find the words you’ve been trying to say, but nothing seems to come. Those memories you once shared with your first love, your first heartbreak and trying to reinvent yourself.

In an age where whole relationships are carried out by IM, text and email, she remains a dreamer, a hopeless romantic, who wishes that her 'Memories throughout her time she wishes she could keep in jars' will inspire love, romance and happy memories in her readers as she seeks – and hopes that we all find - that which she calls ‘Agapé love,’ the type of perfect love that transcends all others. Her journey is the somewhat convoluted one which most of us take, ebbing and flowing through this stage and that, meeting the right one, the wrong one, the next one … love and adoration, heartbreak and happiness, they all appear here, in thoughts and poems written from the ever-romantic heart.

Ink in the Wind

Human Emotions

Each and everyone of us has our own human emotions. Days can be filled with happiness whereas other days can be full of sadness. The uniqueness of one’s emotions can very rarely be understood by others. It is really difficult if not impossible to tell others how you feel or for them to understand how you are feeling. I have tried in this book to cover the inner most boundaries of human emotions splitting my poems into different realms of human thought. Hope, fate and destiny, joy, life, the world, loneliness, love, regrets, religion and the future are all covered in this book. I hope the reader can relate to and understand my poems and bring some perspective and reasoning towards their life. We are all not the same and never can be but we all have a heart and soul. By identifying these moments of thought I hope I can bring perspective and understanding to the reader. I hope you enjoy my book. 

Hopes, Dreams and Poetry in Between

My happiest feelings reside in my heart. It tells me daily: ‘Life is beautiful, trust it and it will display you its beauty.’ By doing so, I created my rhymes. I wish to share them. They started in Bosnia and are currently taking a place in Auckland, New Zealand. I truly enjoy its beauty and its sea breeze that I get to feel during my long walks. That is when I write the best, when I feel the breeze. It inspires me the most.Why do I write? To enrich the readers’ lives, remind them to embrace life and ‘the journey on earth’, to live each day the best they can. Who can guarantee us ‘tomorrow’?Go for a daily walk, even for just five minutes. You never know what you might see, who you may run into or what sort of a beauty nature might reveal to you…
