Reflections on Being Human
Price range: $3.99 through $27.99This special addition of Reflections on Being Human contains 150 exquisite poems, written by Dr. Nirander Safaya after his retirement from a brilliant scientific career. These poems portray the thrills and challenges of life and love in general and the saving grace of spiritual light and wisdom in particular.
The poems are divided into three thematic parts-Life, Love, and Light. The structured arrangement of poems followed in this book allows a coherently flowing exploration of human feelings, emotions, and aspirations, and of the human behavior; thus taking the readers through a panoramic journey of self-discovery. The verses are eloquent and evocative, with dazzling imagery that touch the senses and soul, delving into the pragmatic, romantic, and spiritual longings of human beings. These lucidly written verses reflect on, and expose, the secrets of achieving success in love, peace, and happiness.Positively uplifting and illuminating, Safaya’s poetic work is reminiscent of classical poetry, for it is deeply thought provoking about human nature and condition. Foreword Clarian Review wrote, “Reflections on Being Human works toward truth and self-actualization with many poems hinting at ultimate perfect unity …surprising imagery to uncommon and timeless effect.” Kirkus review remarked, “This earnest collection tackles serious questions…[c]onsiders the subject of love both abstractly and concretely.” An editor at iUniverse, A. Spencer, wrote, “these poems have a rare intellectual and spiritual depth as well as lyricism.”

Russell is an educator, researcher, poet, songwriter, and producer. He is known as pragmatist, his brusque yet seductive approach to writing challenges the reader to confront the esoteric.

This author invites the reader on a random walk through their constructed realities and further challenges them to explore its nebulous boundaries. He forces them to grapple with their own imagining; it is this quasi-spiritual exploration that gives credence to his body of work.
Wayne D. Russell is a Mathematics lecturer and researcher at Medgar Evers College, The City University of New York. He has written and presented academic papers, nationally and internationally, bringing innovation to Mathematics learning.
Russell is also the Chief Executive Officer of EduSols LLC, a New York based small business research entity. He is the Executive Director and principal songwriter of LyricSurge Records, a small independent recording label operating out of New York and Ft. Lauderdale.

Reflections III: The Magic Beyond the Pain: The Journey, My Impact, Their Impact
Price range: $3.99 through $19.99This book reflects life-each and every one of us in our journeys as all of us inevitably end in the same place. It is our journeys, individually and those we share time and space with, along with the many souls on four legs that define the happiness inside. It is also imperative that we find ways to help the world we live in-for those many starfish that ended on the beach, and for each of those starfish that we can throw back in the water,-well, one more life we have saved. Inevitably, it is the lives we save that actually save us-aren’t they? They fill our souls with energy with that special feeling that we mean something that we actually are all connected but to live life with purpose-well that is ultimately the most fulfilling of all important feelings. To each of you I hope you fill those moments in the simplest of ways-giving back, and pay forward to become the power and energy that will save us all.

At that time, the name Evergreen Pines: Book of Religious Poetry was born.

God Speaks to Me in Silence
Price range: $3.99 through $16.99Where does poetry come from? For Janet Safford Cline, her poetry comes from a lifetime of loving words and putting them together to express her faith in Jesus Christ. A lifelong Christian, in her inspiring poetry collection, God Speaks to Me in Silence, she imagines biblical scenes and stories in the poems “Shepherds, “Temptations” and “Why” She gently pokes fun at Sundays-only Christians in “Dear Bishop” Janet lived many years in the Texas Panhandle and recalls it lovingly in her poem “In the Panhandle” and she ponders her life in several poems about her family and friends. For the last forty years, she has lived on the Texas Gulf Coast, complete with hurricanes and uncertain weather, all of which is reflected in God Speaks to Me in Silence. God speaks to me in silence, never bombast or demand. The Lord of Lords is patient, always holding out his hand. I seldom take the time to sit and wait for his soft word, But I know God’s there and waits for me whatever has occurred. It’s only when I quiet down I hear God’s wondrous voice. God’s always there to talk to me, but I have to make the choice. God speaks to me in silence, when my mind is rapt and still, And it’s up to me to listen then to hear his perfect will.

Navigating the Quartz Forest
Price range: $3.99 through $15.99Each dreamlike lyric in Biman Roy’s Navigating the Quartz Forest is charmingly paired with a small handwritten note hastily jotted down on blue-lined notebook paper-artifacts from his daughter’s life outside the family home. “All through the evening, we keep talking nonessentials, / tiptoeing around secret tulips,” he says. These notes, like scraps of overheard conversations removed from their natural habitats, become the crystalline seeds of new poems. Side-by-side with each other, the poems act as translator for these somewhat oracular messages from an unknown world of teenage gossip and pop culture references, fitting the pieces together like a shattered mirror and filling in the jagged-edged gaps with the poet’s expansive imagination. In Navigating the Quartz Forest, Roy’s whimsical poems become a sparkling tribute from a father to his beloved daughter.

Songs for the Last Sunrise: Poems and prayers from the edge of eternity
Price range: $3.99 through $14.99Poetic Prayers for the End of Night and the Coming of Light
Songs for the Last Sunrise is a journey through darkness toward the first glimmer of forever. These poems and prayers rise from the edge of exhaustion and the brink of hope, written by a man who has stood in the fire, walked through ash, and learned to listen for God in the quiet before the dawn.
In these pages, faith flickers and flares. Shadows speak. Lamps burn low but never go out. From the long night of suffering to the holy expectancy of Christ’s return, each piece leans toward the horizon-toward the moment when the sky splits, the trumpet sounds, and every weary watcher is finally met with light.
This is a book for those who have waited through the ache…
for the ones who still believe He’s coming…
for souls who refuse to close their eyes, even when the night feels endless.
Songs for the Last Sunrise is a companion for the midnight hour and an anthem for the morning that’s almost here. Continuing the journey begun in Tod Truettner’s first book, Creation to Christ, this work follows the soul from the edge of surrender to the threshold of glory. Tod writes with the grit of a builder and the heart of a watchman, reminding us that hope has a pulse even in the dark-and that heaven is closer than we think. -

His only comfort was writing to escape the reality of abuse, and these are the curious cases of the madman or is he. The poems are based on the nightmare of FD Ravenskraft’s sleepless night being afraid of the world. But he understands the true fear of society himself. The constant terror within the insomnia of this broken night after night he compose the horror of his sleepless experience and write them down to try to understand his critical thinking. His style of poetry is aspired and inspired by the writing of H.P. Lovecraft and Edgar Allan Poe and writings of Charles Baudelaire, Lord Byron, Keats and Shelley and Mary Shelley. In the beginning, that was creation. And at the end of the journey, is Ravenskraft.
Welcome to the horrors of HIMM!
He is Madness and Mayhem!
