What better place for poetry to come from than from life? Roger D. Riley’s poems are vignettes from his own varied existence as they follow his footsteps through the thrill of Christmas, the turmoil of war, the many changing aspects of love, the humor of “nothing better to do,” the abstractness of reflection, the outrageousness of politics, and the elusiveness of hope.These poems are sharp, they are piquant, they talk rather than build geometrically, and the voice they talk with is plaintive, and the words that voice utters are understandable and unaffected.These poems are the result of sincerity. They are the offerings of a poet who must be a poet regardless of the circumstances, a poet to whom poetry is the primary nature.Poetry From Life is a book that is exactly what its title says. It is written by a poet who is exactly what a poet is supposed to be. – From the original book jacket of Poetry From Life.
