Stolen Moments - Andy White (2011) - Book - Andy talks about his second book of poetry:
I've always written poems in Brisbane. Every time I've been there
it's all been about rain and poetry. So when Another Lost Shark Press
asked for a slim volume's worth of poems, I had my theme ready-made.
"I've always written poems in Brisbane. Every time I've been there it's all been about rain and poetry. So when Another Lost Shark Press asked for a slim volume's worth of poems, I had my theme ready-made.
I didn't want The Music Of What Happens Volume 2 ... yet ... so this suited me. I looked through my notes, envelopes and little black books and took out poems I'd either written in Brisbane, or just after I'd left that magical poetic city.
"Magical poetic city" - you're thinking I've lost my mind. I should be talking about London or Paris. Yes, but spare a thought for San Francisco, Belfast and ... Brisbane. Cities off one kind of cultural beaten track, but where great writing thrives.
Anyhow, if you're into my songs, 'The Music Of What Happens' or '21st Century Troubadour', I hope you can get hold of 'Stolen Moments'. It's a quick read from part of a long journey, if you see what I mean.
