More Love, Death and Other Stuff!
“A wonderful work of poetry, full of poems that bring excitement, nostalgia, recollections, and fond memories. When these poems span the gamut of emotions, from hope and love, to despair and anger, charm and annoyance, bounty, life, death, yearning and remorse, and so many more sensations in between the emotional cracks.”
— Daniel Quillen, author of Quillen’s Essentials of Genealogy vol 1 – 6
“it is a beautiful book of poems! Absolutely beautiful! I am now a fan of Wendy’s poems.”
— Peggy R., Educator

Not the ability to fly, or X-ray vision, but nevertheless terrific powers, powers of empathy and kindness, the ability to make another whole, to pick up the pieces and put a man together again.
Just perhaps, just imagine.
This book of poetry, Little Worlds, is about worlds of your own creation where you personally create wonder. Using the medium of poetry – a concentrated language – Little Worlds endeavors to give us a glimpse into the magnitude of our own ability. And if it were so, what if…
What if…
What if?

Magic Realized
Paperback – April 21st, 2017
[maxbutton id="1" text="Ebook | $7.99" url="/product/magic-realized-ebook/"] [maxbutton id="2" text="Paperback | $17.95" url="#"]You are much more beautiful than you ever imagined.
You are wiser, more compassionate and of greater use than, in many cases, you have been taught to
believe. Your dreams matter. Your personal pursuit of happiness matters. You matter.
You are an immortal spiritual being. You have a unique, personal magnificence. It is my viewpoint that
poetry is a concentrated and direct language with which that special wonder that is you can be addressed
and drawn out.
This book is about your capacity to love; to be amazed and
astonished. It’s about the unacknowledged grace that you
possess. It concerns your native potential to create.
This book was written with the purpose of communicating to
the untapped magic inside of you; the special personal artistry
that belongs to you.
My intention in writing this book was to speak to the miracle
that is you.
Much Love,
Louis

WHAT IF YOU KNEW THAT AFTER DEATH
YOU WOULD LIVE AGAIN…

“Messages in a Bottle: Communications to My Future Self,” is a gripping, life-changing collection of messages from acclaimed poet, Michael Graves. It spans the gamut of love, death, politics, social upheaval, art, hope, humor, brass-tacks metaphysics and more. There is power in these words, and there are valuable lessons in this book.

Not to be Forgiven
Paperback – September, 2013
[maxbutton id="1" text="Ebook | $7.99" url="/product/not-to-be-forgiven-ebook/"] [maxbutton id="2" text="Paperback | $17.95" url="/#"]Immersed in World War II propaganda, a 10-year-old Nebraskan child, Sis, is convinced all Germans are monsters. Her brother, Danny, is fighting Germans in North Africa. Then she meets Horst, an inmate in a near-by Prisoner of War Camp. He’s friendly, funny, and helps her save an injured magpie. She trusts him with her fears, but, shaken by ambivalence, tells no one about the relationship.
As events transpire, Sis ponders: Is Horst friend or foe? She can’t be sure. Then Danny comes home a shattered stranger, his diary filled with Nazi atrocities. Forcibly reminded all Germans are foes, she betrays Horst’s friendship to intransigent Nazis in the POW camp because she hears they punish American sympathizers. What she doesn’t know is that the evil of Hitler’s gestapo reaches all the way into these camps.
Sis learns what they did to Horst from a nurse who works in the POW infirmary; the result of torture, it leaves the kind German maimed for life. She is devastated. Decades later, Sis still grieves the unthinkable damage they did him and, as she sees Swastika earrings on a child, she remembers how their friendship was twisted by the malignant power of hatred. She prays for forgiveness for herself and asks mercy for a world again awash in hate.
