Synopsis

Dr. Susan Wanlass, Professor of English

"Malcolm Kirwan's poetry evokes something different and stirring in each reader - memories of home, familial relationships, reaching goals, searching for our purpose in life...and, most importantly, passion and love thoughts that move one to silent reflections."
Davida Siwisa James

A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Malcolm C. Kirwan, a native of the island nation of St. Kitts-Nevis in the West Indies, shares with us a very personal and reflective portrait into his consciousness with his poetry collection "My Reflections Painted with Verse." In his professional and public life, he has absorbed himself in four passions - a 35-year professional career at the University of the Virgin Islands until his retirement in 2005 as the vice president of administration and finance; a commitment of more than 30-years to community service as a member of the International Association of Lions clubs culminating in his elevation to Chairman of the Council of Governors for the English Speaking Caribbean and the Guyanas; sharing his knowledge and experience through speeches and lectures to give individuals and work groups a larger vision of themselves, and a greater sense of personal empowerment; and an untamed desire to probe his imagination and consciousness for the discovery of self, and to reduce his explorations to an experiment with verse and other forms of expression.His collection of poems, published under the title, "Painting My Reflections with Verse" reflects the reverberating echoes of his imagination in its encounters with the experiences and mysteries of life. These echoes have been captured in verse with the contemplations, explorations, dreams and reflections that paint the color of his thoughts and consciousness as he journeyed with his musings.This eclectic collection of poems and musical offerings are powerful proof that human beings, no matter what their calling in life, respond to the compelling power of the creative voice within them. Kirwan's poems are, at once, pictures of our familial duty, of a deep-seated romantic side, our aspirations to develop ourselves, and of the ponderings we all share when considering our place on earth, the greater meaning of life and death and all that happens in between to shape our destiny.This collection spans over thirty years and reveals t
