Synopsis "And the words you put down will be magic"
The poems reveal very delicate perceptions. After reading these poems, the striking phrases reverberate within us. The style of the poems is simple, but is not monotonous. BIOFrom the small town of Hampden, Massachusetts, to his camp in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont, Charlie Knowlton s poetry fills the reader with imagery and feelings with humor in so very few words. Clever and quirky, such as his "Obituary of a moth," to his very first poem "Michelle s cat Smiddy," a true story, his writing is both original and entertaining. In this his first book, "The words you put down will be magic," he begins by taking you through the feel of New England s change of seasons and short stories, to romance, and finally to his 3 line haiku and senryu poems of nature and the behavior of people as humans, their pets, and the everyday sights around us... Easy to digest and relate to, here s hoping you enjoy.
