This year has been a very busy one for many of the poets of The Gloucestershire Poetry Society with many having their work published in journals, anthologies and collections. This feels fitting as the theme of our poetry this year has been 'magic' and it certainly feels that we have been under a spell. I personally have heard the comments regarding our continued efforts to promote poetry for all. The work herein is a collection of poems collated from a pool of poets of all levels and backgrounds. A collection I hope you enjoy, as much as the poets themselves as they crafted their work, Yours in the art, Z D Dicks

Kaum jemand spricht ber dieses sehr intime Problem, obwohl es die meisten Menschen betrifft. Ursachen und Hilfen werden in diesem Buche auf leicht verst ndliche Weise erkl rt. Es wird gezeigt, wie man das H morrhoidalleiden mit Hilfe der klassischen Naturheilkunde heilen oder zumindest so weit in den Griff bekommen kann, um damit beschwerdefrei zu leben.

'Becoming Naked' is a poetical, serendipitous mix of feelings, memories, aspirations and dreams. Jump naked into the pool of enlightenment and feel the universe envelop you. The only potential for immortality resides amongst the living.

'Another Friday' is a poetry book by Peter Lay and Zaiming Wang... It should not be seen as a sequel to 'Yellow Over The Mountain' by the same authors, more of a supplement. Most of the poems were written collaboratively via exchange of email and text messages.

This is a book, written in both English and Chinese, about the beginning of an unfinished journey to seek life through art. The journey began in June 2014 with an exchange of ideas by email. However, the words in this book have been mainly taken from text messages and emails between March and June 2016. They become metaphorical... And then personal... But that is life...
