MAITLAND, FL— With Dorothy M. Cox’s new book, The
Poetry In Me, ($11.99, paperback, 9781498403672; $5.99, e-book, 9781498403689)
the objective is expression through the medium of poetry, but the author shares
that the goal of the work is “to train up a child in the way he should go…” (Proverbs
22:6). The poetry within the book confronts relevant issues, such as: social
morality, self-determination, school days, seasons, and patriotism. The
author’s mission is to present poetry as a venue to express the joys of life,
as well as pressures and concern, in a socially acceptable way.
“The Poetry In Me breaks the mold in its mere layout,” states the author. “Children's names line each page; a special poem is dedicated to any name overlooked. There are blank pages in the book so the reader can become a poet, a co-author, of a book in print! The process is advanced along with helpful hints to make everyone successful.”
Dorothy M. Cox is a retired New York City public schoolteacher who has always strived to inspire and bring to the surface hidden talents in other. Calling upon years of experience working with young minds, she set out to create a unique book that offers room for her readers to express themselves. Together with her son, Christopher, she created the poetry and the abstract imagery within as an inspiration to the next generation of poets.
