Poetry Just For You
By Mel Clifford
Poems for the moments that are hard to put into ordinary words — written to be read slowly, and perhaps passed on to someone who needs them.
About the book
What it’s about.
Poetry Just For You gathers Mel’s observations, emotions and perspective into short, warm and honest poems.
Like the figure on the cover, reading quietly beneath a tree, these are poems to take your time with: about people, about the everyday, about the small moments that turn out to matter most.
It’s another way to get to know how Mel sees the world — with curiosity, with humour, and with a great deal of affection for people.
Inside these pages
- Everyday observations
- People and relationships
- Humour and the human condition
- Moments worth pausing for
In Mel’s words
“Poetry gives me the freedom to capture thoughts, emotions, observations and those moments in life that can be difficult to put into ordinary words.”
