Lines by Leon: Poems, Prose, and Pictures by Leon Stevens
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Lines by Leon: Poems, Prose, and Pictures by Leon Stevens is a delightful compilation of images built with words. The author makes good use of all the senses, and I found myself stepping into these little “snapshots” of life and becoming fully immersed. It has been quite a while since I have found a collection that has rekindled my appreciation of good poetry. The poems are relatable and poignant, and yet there is an essence of light humor wound through. There are also sketches sprinkled purposefully throughout to add even more to this read. The structure the author uses makes the words flow seamlessly together; before I knew it, I was finished and left wanting much more. Lines by Leon is very easy to read, but stimulating to the mind, and I recommend picking this one up. 4 stars.
