Ricardo Dawson

First Collection Ricardo Dawson

First Collection is a first book of collected poems written by Joseph Dawson, and sons Ricardo and Marlon Dawson. Many of the poems in the book are amorous in nature. They are, in the view of the writers, every man's expression of thoughts and feelings encountered by the young and the old, lovers and would be lovers. The situations they unfold are the stretched imaginings of the three and perhaps some real events in the passage through the corridor of life. Poetry, in its broadest sense is a written expression in verse of the poet's imagination and is adorned by rhyme and rhythm in a setting we label as style. Poems can be as soothing as music or any other movement of grace and form of body, or language or both. This book tries to emulate and conform not so much to any fixed standard but in a manner that can be said to be in 'popular parlance' and should find acceptance in an audience of people who generally like to read.
