Almost: Poetry and Stories About Life

by Melvin Wakeley

The is a book of poetry and stories about life.
I tried to write from the heart the things that have
affected my life. I tried to tell the stories of people
as they live their lives. I tried to describe their failures in life
and the success that sometimes follows. I hope that you,
the reader, will enjoy and find meaning in each and every word.

About the author

Melvin Wakeley is a retired pharmacist.

His passion for writing is a long running one. For many years, he indulged in writing without
sharing most of it with others, except for a few lines here and there shared with his family.

His books represent Melvin’s love of telling stories
of love, happiness, triumph, and defeat as seen through his eyes and as imagined through the eyes of others.
