We spend the greater part of our lives trying to figure out the how, where, and why of belonging. Nothing about our journey is simple, and it is, more times than not, filled with a greater number of difficult questions than it is with concise answers. No one sees this phenomenon more clearly than author David Hart. His book of poetry provides readers with some amazing food for thought as they ponder life’s disappointments and successes in love, fear, and self-realization alongside the author.
These Paths I Walk: An Open Connection to Life, by David Hart, reveals the author’s innermost thoughts and beautifully illustrates his thoughts and interpretations of other poets, religions, and life experiences. Hart’s feelings are intense–his writing style makes his depth of understanding of the world around him clear to readers.
Those who enjoy reading poetry that is not narrative in nature will appreciate Hart’s work. His selections do not rhyme and do not focus on characters of any type. In fact, it could be said that his characters are the experiences as they are the primary focus of each poem. Each selection contains heartfelt and intimate verbiage that will keep readers absorbed and contemplating and comparing their own perspectives to the last page.
These Paths I Walk: An Open Connection to Life, by David Hart, is a thought-provoking collection of poetry. While I was entranced by Hart’s work and thoroughly enjoyed rereading selections like “Expanding” and “Eternity Stands Still,” I did find myself distracted somewhat by the setup and style of the pages. The flow of each poem is impacted by the spacing between each verse. I recommend Hart’s work to any fan of the poetry genre who prefers deep and introspective pieces.
