An Adult's Garden of Verses

This collection of formal verse shows such mastery of meter and rhyme that they tend to disappear into the message or feeling of the poem, even when the poem is tightly constrained such as to be both a sonnet and an acrostic.
An appendix addresses the art of creating poetry, both formal and informal.
The works range from the light-hearted (Little Red Riding Hood) to the ridiculous (the sad story of a three-legged pig) to deeply thoughtful, and includes a series of love poems addressed to his beloved wife JoAnn.
