Alive Until You're Not
Enjoy this debut collection of poetry from St. Lucian author W. Sarvay. You will find poems covering a wide range of themes, including many with a uniquely St. Lucian/Caribbean perspective. Poems in this collection are written in many forms as well, including free verse, sonnet, haiku and villanelle. You are invited, as Billy Collins says, "....to waterski across the surface of a poem waving at the author's name on the shore."

Worth the read!!
This book of poems has a wide range of pieces so it’s impossible to not find something you’ll relate to. If it wasn’t for the amazing flow, you might find yourself on a roller coaster of emotions.
Instead, what you’ll get is well-attuned poetry that moves rhythmically and covers a variety of topics from our most common daily practices to, well, our most feared eventuality.
From the supposed mundane put into humorous speech to deeply spiritual matters, and from annoyances to matters of the heart...
Easy to read, enjoyable to consume, and lots to ponder on... loved it.
