Cry Out My Soul, Thoughts and Meditations Book II is a compilation of poems and short stories that encapsulates literary forms of many genres and transcending and expanding into a varied art form, reaching back to the Elizabethan era and also embracing many more modern cultures, making it an all-inclusive choice for lovers of fine literature from all ages and, for every generation, wherever there is an appreciation for the poetic art form. It is the author's wish and hope that everyone who is exposed to this work will fall in love with many of the pieces contained therein. Many of the poems are written with rhyme, rhythm and meter, and are designed to be easily set to music both sacred and secular. However, while the love of poetry is a major mechanism within the sphere of life of the author, it the sonnet art forms that fuel, sustain and drives the engine of his unquenchable love for poetry. It is his sincere wish and hope that the reader will have as much pleasure in reading these lines as he has had in writing them.
