We try to survive in this world which we call Earth. Poems of Life: Thoughts of Human Experiences captures some of the common and uncommon experiences of life’s cycle from prebirth to beyond death. It includes thoughts of life, death, and how we live; the experiences of love’s many emotions; and the destruction we cause ourselves, each other, and the world. It also addresses some of our jobs and lifestyles, looks at various aspects of human existence, and includes some thoughts of other living creatures. Poems of Life: Thoughts of Human Experiences is a culmination of Gerald L. Kovacich’s decades of observations, experiences, and education in human behaviors, cultures, religions, languages, and beliefs written in a unique form of what some may or may not call poetry.
