Don Moore, a devotee of the English poet, chose to write his own poems in that classic manner. With free-wheeling thoughts adhering to the iambic pentameter patterns of the 14 line sonnet, Moore explores many subjects beyond Shakespeare's English Renaissance realm. His interest in Asian legends, American music and life, astronomy, and mythology is penned in admiration of Shakespeare's craft. Moore's love poems echo the Bard of Avon's romantic sonnets. However, his compositions in rich verse are created for the contemporary reader. Applying tempered imagery to his poetic vision, Don describes himself in lines of his sonnet titled WILD.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"I, the poet, sit here singing my songs, \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMy songs over and over, back and forth\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike an excited caged beast who belongs\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the wild blackness of the Dipper's North.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI say that Poetry is a feeling\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd I possess enough of lyric bent\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo taste a bestial newness when I sing...\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-13490105\"\u003eDon Jr. Moore\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Virtualbookworm.com Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/09\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.31d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781638680444\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1638680442\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POE\"\u003ePoetry\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POE005010\"\u003eAmerican | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POE\"\u003ePoetry\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POE023000\"\u003eSubjects \u0026amp; Themes | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Virtualbookworm.com Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44456767946989,"sku":"9781638680444","price":17.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_6ca9bb97-ac70-4649-a242-6ef3417696bd.jpg?v=1700408404","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/sonnets-from-a-floating-life-9781638680444","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
