A Lifetime of Feelings
by
David Edmond
This collection of free verse poetry examines the deep questions of the human condition: death and disease, love and God, and the endurance of the human spirit. Inspired by the author’s life, the poems are both unique and universal, asking readers to join the author in contemplation of the world around us.
So many situations in life are common to us all, but the emotions we feel are unique to each of us. These poems give readers the opportunity to reflect on their reactions, and see common situations in a new light. They are, in essence, a set of facts that allow us the liberty to provide our own reaction.
David Edmond is a poet, author of A World Diverse, A World Diverse ll, See comes between (b) and (d), A World Diverse lll, In Need of Help. The death of Edmond’s wife to Parkinson was the beginning of his poetic journey. Before that, he served in the RCAF for most of his life, travelling across Canada several times, with stops on both coasts and in central Canada and the Prairies.
Edmond lives in Granby, Quebec. He remarried late in life, and he and his wife Kathryn, a former nurse in retirement, are both actively involved in their local community. They have two pets, a dog and cat, who love to roll around and fight and then lay down together. Edmond has a daughter and three grandchildren, and his wife has two sons who live as neighbours in the two houses next-door.
