Non - and Other Sense Peter Heinz Wendt

The magic of poetry is created through tone, association, and rhythm. Where "a picture says a thousand words," a poem may replace a thousand pages. Poems invite our imagination to unwrap the condensed context of word compositions, and then find unique connotations and emotional responses in the ensuing associations with our personal experiences. Thus, a book of poetry may appear in many contexts; its impact on the open mind, however, is unique through individual differences and prevailing mood. Life experience enters poetry in many subtle ways. There is no specific experience to share. Four or five events over two decades may at some stage inspire a verse without the writer even being aware of it. Non - and Other Sense is a personal book of poetry that seeks to entertain, stimulate, provoke, and be shared. Most of all, it needs to be read again and again in order to expose its multiple layers of meaning. "On migrating to Australia in 1973, I discovered very quickly that writing is an ideal medium to learn a language. Thus my book has grown one word at a time." Notes Peter Heinz Wendt, "I am 66 years of age. It is not my age, but the age we live in that is pertinent to my poetry."
