A Lakeland(shire) Lad

At long last! Rhyming poetry in a contemporary collection for those who appreciate the poetical rhyming puzzle of words. Steve Ziemba's work is filled with humorous poems, love poems, and observations about life in general. His work dives into deep emotions and the human condition, spanning a full range of emotions and situations, from sadness to joy, including humorous observations on life, lost love, deep love, loneliness, depression, suicide, and the trauma of date rape. In short, he writes about life, and as he notes in the book, life isn't always pretty. Ziemba dares you to think about what you just read. He may present you with a very funny poem about life, then one about a truism of life, yet another may cause you to think you know what it is about but then discover you were totally misdirected. This book captures the human spirit in a rhyming style, a genre rarely seen today.
