PARSIFAL'S PEOPLE POEMS
INTRODUCTION
Hello and welcome to this, the final book of poetry from my collection of old written work. People here are the main theme and my reflection on myself which naturally takes other people to see what you are all about or trying to get at in your own or my personal thinking. People have daily necessities and I have tried to put these into this classification as everyday needs and requirements that people simply must have or use to meet the situations and standards in some cases of everyday life. Some ideas are quite simple and coming from a young writer of 25-35 for most of them. There is a fair bit of naivity and searching for answers to the meaning of life and while I try to find meaning in that and those ways of looking at things those ideas, I have to give thanks to God for the gift of writing and for all the valuable ideas He gives me to put down in writing. So here we have the final of eight books that were stored away in a filing cabinet for ten or more years and some go back to 1985 when I first starting to take writing as a career seriously. At first we just had a few scribbles of what might be possible ideas, but with more experience, I learnt to write what would be prefered to be read rather than what I would prefer to write, while with a certain extent I still have to write to please myself, more so I have to consider the readers perspective in the earnestness and the desire to be read by others. Being read by others is the first way that you can say that you have made some kind of impact in the world and what you have been trying to put across or get through to others in the mind of the idea for what was being written to be read. It is funny how some of the old stuff can sound so silly to me now, but I have included these so that you to can have a bit of a laugh to. A young mans ideas, as to an elderly persons, have far different depictions on the meaning of life now than what simarlar people from the same age groups do. While some things sound simple and profound in fact they can have deeper meanings or references and relevances to other people of different age groups, especially as we look down the years from where they have come to who is actually them reading them now. Please try and enjoy this my 21st book and eight in the process of archived restorations, salvaged from the dump, but are now here for you to read. Thanks and God Bless. Darel. Â
