Angels, like humans, have "free will," and at times, they even disagree with what the Almighty has tasked them to complete, but only a few have ever defied Him: Lucifer, Lilith, and now the angel Blade. She had been in his celestial service for over two thousand years, and now she wants to experience all that is human. What Blade doesn't realize is that to be truly human, she must experience pain, heartache, and betrayal in order to find happiness, pleasure, and love. She is subjected to human frailties, moral weaknesses, temptations, and arrogance. God sends her help in order to guide her along her chosen path, but only she can decide to listen. Because of Blade's bold defiance, she sets in motion a chain of events that could very well destroy this fallen world.

Within a unique collection of poetic insight, Timothy J. Donovan Jr. transforms quotes, proverbs, and sayings into rhyming poetry presented as lyrical verse known as quoems-a solidification of thought that creatively intertwines literature and vocabulary with poems and philosophy.Donavan, whose love of the written word is clearly evident throughout this volume, shares proverbs from around the world as well as quotes and ideas from famous influencers such as Mark Twain, Robert F. Kennedy, Voltaire, Benjamin Franklin, and George W. Bush and from anonymous and lesser known influencers like science fiction author, Carl Frederick, and Roman soldier and historian, Cato the Elder. When combined into a quoem, these ideas and thoughts created over centuries may be considered complimentary, contradictory, amusing, complete nonsense, or even may take on a new meaning, contrary to the original thought.The Book of Quoems is an innovative compilation that transforms quotes, proverbs, and sayings into poetic verse that will delight lovers of the written word.

One's Perspective is a collection of poems written from the 1960s to the present day that speak of teenage curiosity, lost and found relationships, social turmoil, and wisdom of the years. It is the culmination of a lifetime of reflection, just snippets in time framed in poetic verse from one baby boomer's point of view. One's Perspective will lead you to recall a time when you felt deeply about a given topic, one that made you feel compelled to take a side, to march for a cause, and maybe to shed a quiet tear or two or to write a poem. But no matter how you feel today, opinions evolve and points of view change. So after reading each poem, keep in mind that it's only one's perspective.
