The new book explores life in 600 entertaining and inspiring oil poems

Limerick can be fun and even readable. I have been creating a few of my own for many years, but I never thought about writing more than six hundred. But Harold Richter did this for some purpose. He pointed out on the cover of "Limelix's love, life and laughter" that the publication of this "oiling poem" is "for a long time." Ambition." He said, "A few years ago, I listened to some audio books and pointed to the Enlightenment.

Although I do not fully agree with the author's views on everything, they do clearly express their feelings about love and life in a way that is largely inconsistent with my own views and experiences. ".

After feeling that he learned more about life and love by listening to these books and his own experiences, Richter wanted to write his own insights on these books, but he wanted to "take an acceptable, A pleasant, easy to understand method." Since he has been writing poetry for a long time, he decided to use the form of oil painting to convey his ideas to readers. Many self-help books are there, but "Limelix's love, life and laughter" is not one of them. However, readers may become better people to read this book - at least, they will feel more relaxed and happier, and they may come up with new perspectives on different aspects of life. Most importantly, Richter's use of short oil-filled poetry forms a variety of problems, usually with a sharp twist at the end of the poem, a usually humorous or meaningful twist or both. It. Richter's poetry is sometimes ironic, sometimes just fun, occasionally a little sad, often insightful; it's never cruel, biting, and not offensive - he does have some body functions Poetry, but not too vulgar or grotesque. It's all very interesting.

If someone doesn't know what a poem is, I will quote some of my favorites from this series so that readers can understand Richter's style and some of his themes. The book is divided into sections on several different themes, which at first glance seem to be lengthy poems, but each section is actually made up of many five-line poems. Part of the title is: "What is love?" "What is life?" and "What is laughter?" Each of these sections begins with a short essay on the subject. Several of these sections are further divided into groups of poems, including: self, health, smoking, government, cold and flu seasons, and holidays.

Here are some examples. My two favorite people from the "Love" group reflect serious or philosophical aspects and are:

When it is taught, love is magical.
from

Its mysterious features are unknown.
from

You can love today,
from

Then give up,
from

And more than you did at the beginning.
from

Some people pass judgment, enthusiasm,
from

In their view, it is not attractive.
from

In order to increase distraction,
from

When you judge someone's behavior,
from

This makes their love more difficult to feel.
from

My two favorite poems come from Christmas choices. The first is an example of Richter Humor:
from

In his sleigh, Santa quickly prays
from

Because his reindeer has talent.
from

Look, Rudolph, bright,
from

I ate baked beans that night.
from

Others are gasping!
from

And this Christmas poem is one of the few poems in the book, about politics and current affairs [humor]:
from

The White House has a dramatic Christmas.
from

When the rocket passed the first mother
from

They were fired by Saint Nick.
from

Terrorist tricks,
from

Only the coal left for Obama!

I can quote more, but I think these are fair expressions of the various humors and seriousness of Richter's oil painting poems, some of which make me laugh, while others I turn around to read because they let me stop Think down.

Richter added some "extra content" at the end of the book. Poetry is not in the form of Limerick. One of the surprises is that it reveals the contents of Richter - I will leave it to the reader to discover this pair. What is it for yourself? Richter ended the book with "the last point," a thoughtful article that asked us to think about how we define ourselves and how we see others.

In general, this book is very thoughtful, yet interesting and easy to read. This is not Shakespeare, but it depends on its goals. Although I originally thought that a book on oil painting might become boring after reading dozens of books, it always aroused my interest. A person can only read one oily poem every day, and have enough time to entertain for nearly two years, or sit down and read the book several times without feeling bored. Once again, I can't imagine writing so many oil poems. I think I will keep my rhythm for a long time in the future, I will have to try to add some of my own. For those who want to read interesting, easy but meaningful books, I recommend "Limericks' love, life and laughter." I hope that Haroldricht can live to write more oil poems and give his readers more laughter.
