Bridge Communication Gap Between and Among the Generations with Poetry
Rockville, MD, July 20, 2009 --(PR.com)-- What’s Poetry Got To Do With It?

“If I knew then what I know now…” is likely how most of us feel. During the course of our lives we learn valuable lessons and gain wisdom from our successes and failures. We struggle, scrimp and save to improve our lives and those of our children. We weather emotional and physical hardships and endure despite it all; but do we pass on what we know? Do the people we love benefit from and build upon what we have learned; and what does poetry have to do with it?

Poetry reading can be an appealing way to introduce subjects into daily conversation that may otherwise never be discussed. Plain as Sand, written by Jessica LaGuerre, is a hardcover book filled with over 100 rhyming poems. Many topics touched upon include: romance, relationship woes, child rearing, workplace challenges, economic hardship and a whole host of others. The author hopes that many people will use this book as a way to begin dialogue about important and potentially difficult subjects. Laughter, opinions and ideas can be shared at moments in time when no major issues exist. The poems themselves can be the focal points of discussion -- “I don’t agree with the notions in that poem” goes over better than “I don’t agree with you.” If the general idea is for each generation to improve upon the last, then each of us should make it a priority to find ways to convey what we know. Plain as Sand can be a useful tool in opening those lines of communication.

Excerpts from Plain as Sand:
Debt: Do you want to be broke all the time ∙ Do you want to be stuck just like me ∙ Then heed my warning; and understand this ∙ Debt money is not free…

What Does a Spanking Teach a Child: What does a spanking teach a child ∙ That words cannot convey ∙ Don’t cross the street? Don’t misbehave ∙ Don’t talk to me that way…

My Secret: I’ve got a secret, a juicy little secret ∙ It’s ripe; and I’m bursting to tell ∙ But if I let out this tasty little tidbit ∙ I’m bound to wreak havoc and hell…

Goodbye: I wish you the best of all things ∙ And I know you will be a success ∙ Know that I’ll miss you and realize ∙ That was not easy to confess…
