       Songs I Sing

      The Foreword

      Dr. Colwick Wilson

      More Song book than Hymnal, ‘Songs I sing’ is a lyrical exploration of the value of words in the healing of the heart. With willing adherence to the tenet of “keeping a song in the heart”, B. Germain Reynolds intertwines the mundane interactions among friends, lovers and family with the rich cadence of elation, laughter, sorrow, pain, forgiveness and restoration in this compilation of songs she sings and commits to her Word files. Her woven tapestry of experiences resonates with familiarity yet provides a neutral space to reflect, sigh, and smile. Her ability to engross readers, in these songs of varying tones and subjects with thoughtful language and interesting imagery, is to be commended.

      This book is a work of notable value, a preface of things to come. Readers will find this journey captivating and fulfilling. It is a thought-provoking collection of poems, whose progress broadens to include topics that may appear to be unyielding in abundance of expressions. The upbeat nature of resolutions reached for the engaging scenarios portrayed—points to a resolute spirit that seeks optimism over pessimism, joy over despair, resolution over brokenness and beauty over dullness. B. Germain’s deftness at placing these emotions and aspirations into artful juxtapositions heightens the sensitivities that can be easily missed without such deliberate designs. Often, in my own journey, I find myself quoting and referencing the offerings of this gifted Poet/Word Artist and I hope you join me in hearty applause to “Songs I sing”. Encore!

      Loss

      The window is open,

      My soul pours out

      unto the street of indifference.

      When will it end?

      How did it start

      with a hole the size of seduction?

      Drop by drop

      Pain by experience,

      the blood of dreams seeped out.

      The shell remains,

      Flesh
