Ryans inspirational poetry is short and direct to the essence, his poems are contemplative yet easy to comprehend, they are uplifting and inspiring, any time you choose to pick up his book. They both are filled with a host of spiritual attributes that are sure to be a source of enrichment - Reading Ryan Daniels has always been a great delight for me. My impression of him is that he writes inspired pieces of poetry – quite delectable to the heart, the mind and the spirit. An analogy that instantly comes to my mind is one of nectar – his poetry nourishes and uplifts your spirits. To me, he is like the English Romantic poet Shelley’s skylark who embraces the dark blue in his flights and from those lofty heights sings with full-throated ease of humanity’s essential nobility and goodness. And his poetry has a certain charismatic power to make us believe in ourselves. To read his poems is essentially to enter into a soulful communion that brings us closer to all of God’s creation in a spirit of loving kindness and compassion, even as it exhilarates our hearts and fills our minds with the sublimest of thoughts. I have no doubt Ryan’s poetry will instantly endear itself to the readers and affect them with a blitheness of spirit that will catch on. So, here’s some manna dew – for you!
