About the Book

There are many books that talk about poetry, some other books contain compilations of poems from diverse authors, some are well known and some are not. Some poetry books are masterpieces of metric and rhymes, they may impress you but the fibers of your being will remain untouched.

There are very few books that share with you the feelings, beliefs and the author’s life experiences. In the Life in Poems Dave Castle invites you to share the joy of celebrating the birth of a child,  you are invited to feel the excitement and passion a man feels when meeting an attractive woman,  you will also read about the pain and frustration of having those you love turn their backs on you. Romantic love and fraternal love are the essence of the poems. In the Life in Poems friendship is celebrated, passionate love is presented in its pure unadulterated form and wedding celebrations are a proclamation of eternal love and dedication to the loved one.

Personal faith, morals and personal principles define our character, in turn, our character determines our daily life. The Life in Poems is about life and the way we live, the way we think and mainly the way we feel. A life is made of many moments, some are happy, some are not. This is a Life in Poems, many moments were collected in poems, as with life, some poems were about happiness but some were not. 


About the Author

A native of Mexico, Dave has had the opportunity to live in several countries such as Mexico, Japan, The Netherlands and the US. The exposure to such diversity in cultural views of life has influenced the way Dave sees his own life.

Since Dave’s first contact with poetry provided by his mother, a renaissance woman who loved teaching young minds, Dave learned about the strong impact that popular poetry has on shaping the culture, customs and history of entire countries.  Customs, views and laws have been changed by using poetry and literary essays to expose injustice, ignorance and even criminal behavior.

Dave has his very own personal set of beliefs; you will find those in his Life in Poems. You may or may not share Dave’s beliefs but you may share his love of poetry.
