For the Poetry Compilation of William Furr, "The Years and Beyond" The poems found in this book were written for those individuals who appreciate the Old Master's style of poetry. Lines of verse with rhythmic rhyme, full of expressive emotions, deeply felt, soul searching, heart-rending thoughts and dreams. Readers will find themselves taken back to the poetry of yesterday. This book of poetry should be read by those critical thinkers who will look for the meaning behind each carefully chosen word. Readers of intelligence who will recognize that choosing meaningful words to create a work of art and then make each stanza rhyme proves to be no small task. Poetry about God, Country, Friends, Teachers, and Family will all reach out to the reader with arms open wide for all those willing to enter. These arms will beckon you to read the next line, the next poem, the next chapter, each with the promise of even more magnificently meaningful lexis.
