The Windmills of the Mind: A Collection of Poems of Love and Regret

is a collection of poems about love and regret written by Wendell Willkie Newman. Wendell has been interested in poetry ever since he memorized and recited Edgar Allan Poe's in elementary school. In his personal life, he cared for his son with cerebral palsy for the five love-filled years of his life. He has severe glaucoma which has taken most of his vision. His past twenty-five years were consumed with providing 24-7 love and care to his bedridden wife. Throughout all of this, he found the time and inspiration to write a few hundred poems. This collection contains a few of those works. He has waited his lifetime to share his gift with you and the world. At the time of publication, Wendell is 81 years old and plans to live to the ripe old age of 102.
