MY FOURTH BOOK:

MY FOURTH BOOK:
As some of you may know
I'v'e started my fourth book.
Based on Danny Boy's song titles,
I thought you may like a look

.
The entire book of my poems
Are titles of Daniel's songs.
I have the OK from his management
To ensure I am doing no wrong.

Daniel even wrote to me
Though the letter I never recieved.
Probably got lost in the post,
That's what I believe.

Through his management in Dublin,
He has already written some words
To be inserted in the book
Or on the end of the blurb.

They forwarded the words 
To me by e/mail .
With what he has written,
How can my book fail?

As I shall be alone at Christmas,
I hope to complete the book,
I still have a few poems to write,
It's surprising how long it has took.

But with family and health issues
Always not far away.
Some days from my pc,
I've had to stay away

.
From different blogs on line
I've learned some useful tips,
About writing and publishing books,
Thank you all for your tips.

The photo at the top of post
Is Danny Boy and me in Nashville TN.
A place I fell in love with
And hope to return again.

Well back to writing poems
For my forthcoming book.
I hope when it's completed
Some of you will purchase .....just to take a look.

    1. Thanks Hank it's surprising what it takes just to write a few poems.
      I am editing them as I go along and hope there won't be so much to do before the book is published.

  4. I think it's great you can go ahead and get it done.
    If you don't know how, find someone who can help you upload it as an eBook.
