MWSA Book Review

Words and Feelings

Author:  Billy Whisenant

Reviewer: Bill McDonald – President of the MWSA

Book Has A lifetime of Recorded Poetry

Poet and writer Billy Whisenant takes poetry that represents 26 years of his life and shares them in a neat little poetry book called, “Words and Feelings.”  His thoughts and reflections are a rainbow of different observations and emotions.  His visions of the world and life are painted by his emotional connection at that moment and place in time and we can see that his words have roamed all over the inside of his heart and soul.

This book is filled with touching little poems and prose that says a lot in a few words.  Billy offers us all a little view inside himself; really exposing himself emotionally to judgment and making him vulnerable to the rough and tumble world of critics and non-poetry loving citizens of the world.

Light reading but heavy with after thoughts as you digest what you just read.  Poetry includes all kinds of subjects and situations are about life in general.  Recommend for most age groups including teenagers.  If you enjoy poetry this is a great book for you.
