Extended description

Poems, twenty cents each is a thoughtful collection of original poetry by Mary Ann Archibald. A hot bubbling pot of fudge evokes a moment in the kitchen, and the sweet, yet hot moment of interaction between mother and daughter. Brass winds its way to demonstrate that commodities of today have a broader affect on the world than just our own motives. The river offers the reader a moment of quiet and asks, what would the world would be like if we were not here? Civic duty is light, if you have a dog, especially a small one, you can probably relate. In a mock orange bush, the author pokes fun at herself while recalling the heady scent of mock orange, evoking world peace.

Review by: Froken Lesley on May 29, 2011 :
Far under-priced, these poems are evocative of warm personal moments and elements of life worth the silence and attention to appreciate. Appreciation is the feeling one is left with after a visit to this world of Mary Ann's. And, for those without one; of home.

Your words awaken the senses and made this reader feel very alive. It was almost as though I was in the moment with you.

Some of the best poetry I have read. It seems, in my mind, that these poems collect the pieces of emotions she felt about the subject enabling the reader to instantly smell, feel, and almost touch her thoughts.
