Crossing a Bridge over Troubled Water is a powerful and reflective collection of contemporary poetry that touches the soul. Edward Hayes masterfully weaves themes of spirituality, introspection, and social consciousness into each verse, creating a body of work that feels both timely and timeless.
What I appreciated most about this collection was its bold sincerity. Hayes doesn’t shy away from addressing the darker sides of human experience—evil, inequality, and division—but he does so with a voice that is hopeful, wise, and rooted in a deep belief that spirituality can be a guiding light. The poems challenge readers to reflect inwardly, to consider their place in the world, and to engage in the kind of self-awareness that leads to growth and compassion.
The rhythm and language are accessible yet profound, making the book an engaging read whether you’re a seasoned poetry enthusiast or just starting to explore the genre. There’s a strong intellectual current throughout, but it never overpowers the emotional resonance.
In a world that often feels divided, Crossing a Bridge over Troubled Water reminds us of our shared humanity—and that love, peace, and enlightenment are not only possible, but necessary.
Highly recommended for readers seeking meaningful, thought-provoking poetry with a purpose.
