Splendors to Remember Derrick Harding

Splendors to remember is a collection of one hundred inspirational poems. They encompass a wide variety of topics, depicting spiritual, political, environmental, personal issues and concepts of love marriage and divorce Sone are ballads and tell stories. Some describe emotional and life experiences, compassion, kindness, forgiveness and remorse; some are metaphor and instructions. The poems supposedly represent the life of the author who discovered his gifts to write late in life after he had spurned opportunities to record his thoughts earlier. He was forced to garner nuggets of truths, which he wrote, polished and preserved as shining splendors to remember.
