  • Later Sonnets
    Paperback
    Later Sonnets
    Brian Hignett

    The present volume, entitled Later Sonnets, continues the writer’s exploration of the classical form. If the earlier work drew upon the eighteenth century and the language of the law, here the hand is surer, the voice more seasoned, and the reflections more tempered by experience.


    The poems remain serious in their general cast, yet moments of wit and humanity are not absent. They range across the landscape of the human spirit, considering with candour its trials, renewals, and quiet revelations. Once again, the writer respectfully submits this collection to the discernment of his readers, whether they approach in sympathy, in judgement, or perhaps both.

    When the Gates of Hell Sprung Open
    Declan Acton

    I was dying on my feet, not even realising the devil had me in his grip. On a downward spiral toward an early grave, I needed a miracle—and fast. My mind was shattered. I was facing prison, locked away against my will, yet I still believed I was a good person. Then, the impossible happened. A miracle.

  • You Speak to Me
    Paperback
    You Speak to Me
    Nilab Azimi

    You speak to me is about how something we come across or encounter resonates with us in different and diverse ways, can be part of our internal dialogue, or where we find ourselves being in two minds, feeling conflicted, or emotionally torn between what choices, decisions, and actions to make and take.

    This book intends to serve as a medium in promoting expression and connection through a collection of topical and theme based poetry in dialogue with one another highlighting metaphorically speaking, what speaks to us and what we need to tune into, attend, and respond to.

  • The Bliss of the Glory of the Grace of My Soul
    Paperback
    The Bliss of the Glory of the Grace of My Soul
    Yaki Ocean

    This book has been inspired by the divinity within me to spark the consciousness of mankind with the light of sanity. This light will reawaken humanity’s eternal souls from the slumbering of vanity into the light of wisdom. This wisdom leads the mind to eternal, higher-dimension reasoning and to perceiving the glory of the soul’s eternal, heavenly, universal perceptions of the bliss that divine love advocates through the winds of change.

    Through these winds, our minds can be set free from the iniquity of mental slavery that prevents the soul from embracing the eternal opulence of bliss which the universe has conceived in our spirits with joy, eternally.

  • Euterpe's Dream
    Paperback
    Euterpe's Dream
    Blessing Elebra

    ‘On Pegasus’ wings, I fly like a phoenix

    Soaring across continents, clans and counties

    Gliding over mountains and seas

    Inspired by Euterpe’s secret melody

    While singing Orpheus’ lamentable hymn.”

    – Starchild


    “They say poetry makes it a bit easier to live life,

    I hope that these sonnets surmount such heights.

    Burning like fire and quenching like water.

    The truth, spoken through the word

    Of a child staring at the bright star.

    A chance, at least, to live twice, here and afar.”

  • Dire: The Ride
    Paperback
    Dire: The Ride
    Chipo Enita Gunda

    Death is such a fascinating yet sorrowful thing. And I say ‘thing’ because it is so mysterious. The way we experience death and dying is very personal. I strongly believe that since it happens to everyone, at some point, we need to be more open about it. Explore the science, the religion, the thought processes, the comfort. Let’s demystify death, in the hopes that we won’t be afraid; after all, we can’t run away from it.

  • The Garden Out of Dust
    Paperback
    The Garden Out of Dust
    Ania Atsu

    The poet of The Garden Out of Dust offers—to all who wish to listen to her, or rather, to see her—here for the first time, perhaps—a little tender longing for what is constantly passing away, a pinch of feeling for the companions of our everyday fortune and misfortune, a drop of melancholic yet solid hope for a more cheerful tomorrow.


    She extends her hand toward us, smeared with the dusty garden colours, askew with disproportionate lore.

  • What to Believe and Other Poems
    Paperback
    What to Believe and Other Poems
    Cliff Duncan

    As the author of this original work as a book of poems, I would like the readers to engage their minds and get with my written utterances and apply a kind of understanding and draw their own conclusions of what they have just digested and not to be fearful of some deep thinking. The reader, I hope, will feel somewhat elated and fresh with inner thoughts!

  • Faith by Reflection II
    Paperback
    Faith by Reflection II
    Ali Ansarifar


    A Christian conversion is an experience like no other. It is a journey, often a long one, which takes a person from a state of indifference and distraction to a state of submission and adoration. The question is, how can this experience be conveyed to the public? In the heart of man, every beat is a note in the melody of life.


    As the chords are touched, notes sound, and melodies are made. In a rare moment, the right chord is touched in the F key, and Faith echoes. From then on, the melody will remain in the F key with Jesus conducting.

    The melody reaches a climax with the last note played in the E key, Eternity. Melodies played in the F key, ending in the E key, wrapped in meaning, and harmonised by Christ for a better sound, please the Lord. It is hoped that the poems and the proverbs written in this book will touch the hearts of the readers to generate a response which is worthy of a true inner faith in God.
