Everybody Wants To Be Loved — Poems

About the Book

Everybody Wants To Be Loved — Poems is the fifth book of poetry by Don Edwards. As with the other 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 as some will no doubt become song lyrics. 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 songs taken from these poems. These recordings are available on all streaming services. The songs are not Gospel nor is there a bookstore. More information is available on their website — www.truegospelbookstore.com.
