A World Diverse II
See comes between (b) and (d)
by David Edmond


The poems in this publication are, in my mind, a reference of knowledge on life and of living life. Each poem has a message to convey on events or activities we may encounter in our lifetime. The manner in which we confront them and deal with them is unique to each and every one of us. I have set the table, it is now up to you to decide just how you will react on what is placed before you.

I was born in Edinburgh, Scotland and emigrated with my family to Canada in 1957. Settled in Sherbrooke, Quebec where I did my schooling. Attended Bishop’s University under sponsorship of the RCAF. After a 34 year career in the military, I retired to Ottawa. My second wife, Joan, passed away at that time due to complications from Parkinson’s. The stresses I faced as a sole caregiver, were the genesis of my writing career. I published a first book of poems, A World Diverse, expressing my emotions and feelings emanating from that experience in the hope that others in like circumstance could find comfort and support from the messages conveyed. The book has three themes: Faith, Friendships and Feelings. The same emotions intermingle with all three. I now live in Granby with my wife, Kathryn.
