Publisher's Synopsis
Baptist preachers are known for their sermonic messages that often begin and end with quotes from the Bible, especially from the Psalter and the book of Proverbs, as well as from words of hymns of the church.
This is especially true of the Black Baptist preacher, a tradition from which Waters comes. It was his freshman speech teacher, Ms. Fannie Bennett, at Fisk University who caused him to begin to record and write poetry. For some reason, she asked him whether he had ever written poetry.
This is the second volume of Waters' work devoted to his poetic meanderings. Much of this has come during his later years and his retirement. The poetic pieces reflect his many loves especially for the church, music, and nature.
This is the second volume.
