The Sonnets
First published in 1609, "The Sonnets" of William Shakespeare are a collection of 154 loosely connected 14 line poems. Considered by many to be among some of the greatest love poetry ever written much debate surrounds the context of the poetry. It has been suggested that the work may be semi-autobiographical but no real evidence firmly supports this notion. The themes of the poems contained within this volume are varied and include such subjects as the passage of time, love, beauty, and mortality. Some scholars have interpreted the collection as a parody of the 300-year-old tradition of Petrarchan love sonnets. This analysis arises out of the fact that Shakespeare inverts conventional gender roles creating a more complex depiction of human love. Seen as a new type of love poetry when first written, "The Sonnets" largely languished in obscurity until the renewed interest in Shakespeare's work which accompanied the Romantic literary movement of the 19th century. Regardless of Shakespeare's intent behind the writing of "The Sonnets", these poems can be appreciated individually or as a whole as examples of William Shakespeare's true literary genius. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper, includes a preface and annotations by Henry N. Hudson, and an introduction by Charles H. Herford.
When You Hear Me (You Hear Us)

Compiled by Free Minds Book Club & Writing Workshop, this rich collection includes over 100 firsthand accounts from both the young people charged and incarcerated in the adult criminal legal system and from the community at large: the mothers, the loved ones, the correctional staff, public defenders, prosecutors, and others harmed and left with unhealed trauma.

Rumination, a Collateral Beauty
Most of the poems I have created can be labeled as free verse or ballads, because by design I want my poems to tell a story and really make the reader feel what each stanza and each line is portraying. Some of my writings even come off as a conversation, to further connect the reader to what I have to say; much like how the simple placement of a pen touching paper makes me connected to the words, and hear them in my heart. Overall, most of these poems are an accumulation of pain, happiness, and small moments or things in time, that felt the urge to be shared. The aim for this book is to have various readers resonate with it and undergo what I have felt, or experience whatever their own heart desires.
We Are Different, yet We Are Alike
We Are Different, Yet We Are Alike was written for children and parents to share. Children are as stable as their foundation, and the quality of that foundation determines the quality of their lives. Too often inferior materials and misinformation can cause insecurities throughout their lives. This book has illustrations that children can understand, showing that there is a difference we can see. The outside on which we are judged is most definitely you and me, but inside, where love flows free, is where we are alike, you and me.

The Things Father Did Not Teach Us
The Things Father Did Not Teach Us is a collection of poems that explore the nuances of youth. The poems explore the themes of self-confidence, self-love and self-acceptance. The reason for these thematic concerns is glaring. With the intrusion of social media in our personal and inner worlds, the kinds of battles we fight are now taking different shapes- those of anxiety and peer pressure because of what we see online, and self-doubt and the loss of confidence because of the pictures of seemingly-perfect people on Instagram. And who are mostly the victims of this, if not teenagers?The aim of this collection is to tell younger people out there that they don't have to succumb to the pressures of the outside world- to remind teenagers dealing with one or more societal and mental pressures that they're not alone.The beauty of this collection is that it has been able to use language to achieve its goals. The poet is reaching out with an elegant use of words, conjuring poems that are both brave and didactic, instructive, and challenging.This collection is a "must read" for every young person, for the poems within it hold transformative powers. They have the ability to reach deep into the mind of the reader to rebirth someone new.

Riding in Rhyme
The verses in Riding in Rhyme were written over a period of years while John Davies was head instructor/trainer at The Grange Farm Center in London, England, and The St. James Equestrian Facility in Chicago, Illinois. The verses are intended to be humorous and easily remembered, practical lessons, written basically for children, teenagers, and young adult students. They include actual lessons in horsemanship, stable management, and certain personal experiences derived from self-participation in equestrian activities.Serious young riders should keep this book close at hand as a simple reference while they progress in ability. The accompanying illustrations reinforce the enjoyment and encourage learning.A humorous Poetic Guide to the Equestrian Arts, Riding and rhyme it could be said Together form a rhythmic tread So within these pages it is my intention To describe the equine and equitation. Not by the usual methods you'll find But by planting a rhythm within your mind For rhythm is needed and never brute force When you are learning to ride a horse. So many people have so little time Or cannot be bothered, so maybe a rhyme Will help them remember or help them to know All about horses and what makes them go And how they regard us, so that in the end They will know how it feels with a horse as a friend.
God Speaks to Me
Children have a special place in God's heart. The book God Speaks To Me helps children deal with various issues with faith. For instance, one poem teaches how not to be afraid of the dark. One story teaches how to deal with bullies. One poem teaches that God will answer just in time. He listens very intently on the prayer line. Do not worry or fret, He will answer yet. Be open to hearing His voice. You are the child of His choice. Children that I have personally read these stories to have really enjoyed them. I pray that you do as well. May God bless and encourage you. E. Robin Northrup.
Just What I Needed
Through this collection of poems I am attempting to tell a story of life. This story is about my deep seated faith, and the reverence I have for God and his marvelous creation. In this book I am trying to underscore the virtues of redemption, hope, love, growth, truth and friendship. In my genuine effort to capture the humanity of my story, I felt compelled to address the fallibility of man so, sensitive issues like rejection, helplessness, brokenness, lying, hate and injustice had to be highlighted. This book seeks to remind us that, even with all the negativity, and the challenges of humanity, we can still see and feel the emblematic touch of God all around us. There are victories in the waiting so, we cannot lose hope. Hope safeguards one's life against despair and centers it on the endless possibilities of God. My life is a story well worth the living, because I have been blessed beyond measure. I was born in Jamaica, but I have spent the greater part of my living in southern Florida. I have been married to the same wonderful woman for thirty three years. Our lives have been sweetly enriched by our two lovely daughters and one exceptionally adorable grand daughter. I really enjoy putting my thoughts on paper, either in poems or songs. I am so inspired by the natural beauty I see all around me. I also carry a heavy burden for those who are victims of hate and injustice, advocating on their behalf will probably be the endeavor that guides my writing career.
