In this engaging new collection of musings about life and its wonders -- illustrated with playful drawings -- Leslie Miklosy takes us on a journey to the far corners of his imagination. He explores - via wordplay, wit, and succinct expression -- the subtle, the unique, the universal. Equally at home with sense and nonsense, Miklosy celebrates the opportunities of life, while acknowledging its difficulties. He attends to such themes as optimism, success, obstacles, procrastination, relationship to self, aging, and the ultimate mystery of our existence. 'Leslie Miklosy has a way with words. Here are a few that describe Thinkerer -- wise, thought-provoking, meaningful, humorous, insightful, enlightening, whimsical, challenging, and short! I liked it so much I read it twice!' -- Hal Urban, author of 'Life's Greatest Lessons' and 'Positive Words, Powerful Results'

Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding. The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
