About Leonard A. Slade, Jr.'s Poetry (1988 - 2008) "When beautiful poetry emerges from its secret abode, we can only hope we have been wise enough to leave our soul's door ajar, and that it will enter and find a home there. I have read Leonard A. Slade, Jr.'s poetry, and I am the better for it, the wiser for it, and the happier for it." -Dr. Maya Angelou Reynolds Professor of American Studies Wake Forest University "A rhythmical and powerful voice we will long remember." -Thelma Kiser The Independent "The beauty of Slade's poetry is the adequacy of their feeling and the fine images he discovers for their expressions. His poetry is a rich addition to our literary stores." -Houston A. Baker, Jr. Distinguished Professor of English Vanderbilt University "Slade's poetry can pierce the heart or kiss the soul." -Kate Stephens Playwright and Musician Lexington, Kentucky
