Publisher's Synopsis
This Volume Four of "Verses from a Life" has seen a difference in formatting. I have placed the verses under Chapter Heading that are apropos to the content of the poem. While it is true that some of the verses might have been placed in more than one topical rubric, I did the best I could so that my readers can go to a section that might interest them more than another. It was interesting to my editor and me that by far, the subject of Human Foibles, seem to have won the incidence of greatest inclusion. I both enjoy and disdain my observations of human behavior. Humans are infinitely interesting, inspiring, boring, disgusting and humorous. I think we as a species excel in the animal kingdom in regards to behavioral diversity and unpredictability. An old apothegm suggests the "it takes all kinds, to make a world." Of course, a reader might surmise that each and every rubric in the book contains verse that is a commentary in some way on human behavior. I agree. The fact that there are classifying rubrics makes my point about the variety of topics I find in the milieu of mankind.
