About the Book
To Warm The Solitary Night — Poems is the fourth book of poetry by Don Edwards. As with the other three books, these poems consider many areas of life, primarily as a study of Love and Death, while encompassing a broad range of subjects and styles. The poems are divided into groups of twelve. Many of them contain a refrain both for effect and to provide unity to the overall piece. Mr Edwards’ poetry makes use of rhyme, meter, and imagery to set the moods of both Angst and Hope in our current society. True Gospel Bookstore, of which Mr Edwards is the founding member, records these poems and offers them on all streaming services as songs. The songs are not Gospel nor is there a bookstore. More information on TGB is available on their website — www.truegospelbookstore.com. The lyrics are not exact copies of the poems as the melody often requires trimming the edges of the square peg to fit the round hole.
