Poetry fans have a new reason to go to the bookstore – Kay Salady’s debut work, A Teardrop Fell. In this work, the Dog Ear Publishing author chronicles a series of circumstances and feelings from July 24, 2006, to Sept. 30, 2008, revealing the private thoughts of a woman through poetic verse. She leads readers on a life’s journey, seeking the greatest gift of all, which leads to wisdom.
In A Teardrop Fell, the author flexes her literary muscles, writing poetry that ranges from prose to couplets, rhyming selections and free-form verse. An index organized alphabetically by title provides a quick reference for those searching for a particular poem.
Poems include the emotional “Hopelessly Unkind,” “River of Pain” and “If I Could Hold You,” as well as the inspiring “Angels All Around,” “To See My Soul” and “Sacred Love.” Romance seekers will sigh over poems such as “Love Amid the Clover” and “A Teardrop Fell,” the title poem. The opening lines in “We Stopped Time” delight the ear: “We shared a moment; we stopped time. So clear and cool and crisp and fine. Stepped far beyond reality. I looked at you, you looked at me.”
This is the first book for Salady, who began her academic career studying English literature and stenography. She worked in real estate and civil engineering before becoming a poet. Salady is at work on her second book.
