          Foreword

      This collection of poems is my fourth journey into the poetry realm.This book is also special to me ,because ten years ago my poem Me And Proud To Be, became the first of many poems published.I'm celebrating this wonderful occasion by presenting this book to you all as a thank you for reading my work for a decade. This book is also a sequel to my previous book Choose The Stars. Whereas that book was about the lighter side of love,this one is more darker and reality driven. For example the poem Igloo In California, dealt with rare love, Duck Rings deals with pain.I also include some old style favorites the word play series as well as the last poem, One More For The Reader 4. I hope that you all enjoy reading this book, as I have enjoyed writing it.

        Dedication

      I dedicate this book to the three special people in my life,two of whom are no longer with me.My Father,Festus Adeeko Banjo.My great grandmother Juanita Doris Robinson and My wonderful Godson,Devonte
