Lines by Leon: Poems, Prose, and Pictures by Leon Stevens – Review by Angela Hayes

Lines by Leon: Poems, Prose, and Pictures by Leon Stevens
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

“As I walk amidst the slowly approaching night, along the dry cobblestones, I hear music echoing through the narrow streets. It takes a few false turns before I discover the source. Bathed in the soft light of an open door, guitar and flute intertwine their melodies like a passionate dance between two lovers.
My presence, as I lean against the brightly painted wall across the street, goes unnoticed. I listen for as long as I can until prior engagements pry this unknown audience away, retreating into the darkness.”

Lines By Leon: Poems, Prose, and Pictures by Leon Stevens is a great mix of poetry, short stories, pictures, and cartoons. Easy to read, this book definitely gave me much to think about. The author touches on many topics:
-As I See It
– (the) Environment
-The Human Condition
-People and Places
-Ponderance and Muse
-Odds and Ends, Knick-Knacks, and Bric-a-brac
-Table Scraps
-The Surprise Page
-(&) Short Stories
…. full of though, sketches, insights, reflections, observations, humour, sarcasm, relationships, and more- all of which made for an entertaining read-.

Thank you, Leon Stevens!
