Awaken!: sonnets for the modern person - stefan washburn

This book presents a contemporary take on a traditional poetic form.

This approach brings modern issues into close focus, while maintaining the spirit of those who have used it before.

The structure of the sonnet allows for a myriad of expressions, just as the sonata has evoked some of the most exquisite music ever written.

Herein you will find topics touching on love, heart, harmony, personal growth, care of the self and others, nature, spirit, social progress, lifes journey, and others.

The mood ranges from ecstatic to serious, falling back on whimsical.
