About the Book

When Life Happens: In Poetry and Reflection is a collection of 70+ poems of mixed genres. Romance and heartbreak, trauma, grief, aging and nature. They are written in a mix of free verse and traditional poetry styles by a Canadian indigenous author. This is a collection of the many social, psychological and philosophies of life. There are of course cowboys, guitars and trains, and sunshine, trees and tears. There are poems to entertain you and poems to cause you to ponder and reflect. Ponder and reflect about yourself and about the world around you. In life, there is the wonder of love and the pain of love. There is also bar stool romance, war and patriotism, the Blues and yes, some evil. There is the beauty of nature, the beauty of life and the nature of dying, and everything in between. Something for everyone. These poems will be appreciated by a broad audience, young and old. Some poems are just funny and about everyday life. The reader will appreciate the diversity in themes and topics, moving from heavier topics to lighter ones. There are poems to fit many moods. The reader will appreciate how many of these poems will lift a mood and contribute to their appreciation of this form of literature. Many poems are deliberately written to make you think. To think about your own mortality. To think about where you are, what you might leave behind and how you may be remembered. That's always something to think about. This is one of those books you can pick up and put down over and over again.
