Chips: Poems by Jim Rapp

by James D. Rapp

The chips keep flying from Jim Rapp's pen. Or should we say, "ax", or "brain", or "computer"? This new collection spans more than 10 years. He has gone back to the chopping block and picked up a few "chips" written nearly 15 years ago but not selected for his earlier publications. Most, however, are fresh from his ever fertile experience of life. The poems, as in his earlier books, cover a range of subjects, love and friendship, faith, philosophy, whimsy, and more; over 100 new poems to satisfy your many moods and interests. This is a book you'll leave on the table in the living room or the night stand by your bed to be sampled at your leisure. Like his other books of poetry, "Perfect Imperfection", "Sandals", "Second Crop", and "Etcetera", you'll find yourself returning, time and again to your favorite poems to glean a smile or to mull a thought you found important and challenging.
