The Krazy Katz of Thone Eugene C Flinn

The seventy-plus poems and songs in this eclectic collection range in style and tone from playful and whimsical to tender, nostalgic and romantic. Golden Retrievers, crazy cats, love, old age, marriage, cities at night, changing seasons, loneliness, baseball, the shifting face of nature, the elusiveness of time, and the pain of loss and death are some of its many diverse and unconventional subjects. Vivid images and concise lyrical description bring to life an old woman on A Porch in Mendham, New Jersey, and in the poem Winter Sky we see the last of the sun frolicking with azure-tinted clouds in a feast of rainbow colors. And what reader can resist the hilarious Cat Walk where a playful feline crawls inside an old typewriter and leaves in his wake obscene impressions on a lonely sheet of onion-skinned paper? An anthology of verse for many moods and tastes, The Krazy Katz of Thone is a rich buffet of poetic delights.
