SALTSHAKER is a collection from the work of award winning poet Ricky Jordan. Here we meet a firefly that claims it's a fairy, a kangaroo that doesn't know how to jump, and some rather curious law enforcement officers dealing with a drunk and disorderly situation. Both entertaining and thoughtful, this is poetry that has been enjoyed by audiences and congregations alike.
Ricky's creative work and character is truly a gift to you, me, and the world. He takes poetry to another dimension. Take the poem 'Shadow Man'. He is everywhere. Many fail to see him, but Ricky blows his cover. If you want a new take on life, see 'Octark'. Part octopus, part shark. Scary but true to life - it's not all comforting - but stimulating, if you can handle...SALTSHAKER.
'...Ricky Jordan investigates Bible Stories and Christian experience with insight. The collection of poems is accessible and should prove useful for those wishing to inject imagination into their church services.'
