PASADENA, Calif. - Nov. 7, 2014 - PRLog -- Rising, Falling, All of Us: New and Collected Poems Released By California Author Thelma T. Reyna

California author and poet, Thelma T. Reyna is pleased to announce her new book of poetry entitled, Rising, Falling, All of Us: New and Collected Poems.

The Pope.  Artists.  Celebrities. Soldiers. Killers.  Athletes.  Lovers. Ghosts.  Mothers.  Immigrants. Heroes…

…and many more. The poems in this collection by national award-winning author, Thelma T. Reyna, present the gamut of humanity, the famous and infamous, the actual and mythical.  This is a gallery of people we all know, or wished we knew, or people like those we’ve shared life with.

The poems are vivid, sharp, haunting, sad, uplifting, and stirring.

Freedom fighters.  Fathers.  Families. Villains.  Aristocrats. The powerful and the struggling.

They’re all here, for us to see their other sides, to understand, to ponder and examine. And, no matter who these people are, we all rise and fall together, all of us. For such is the human condition.

Rising, Falling, All of Us is available in both print and ebook format.
