P>Review "I feel the poems really gravitate toward themes of love, self-exploration and to a certain extent the pain and joy found within each of those."-Liana DeFrancesco"On the whole, I like the tone of these poems. They speak of soulfulness and come across as honest truth. Nicely done!" -Karljurgen Feuerherm"Simply beautiful pieces...they are all so relatable to everyday life experiences we are all faced with." -Maria Giuliano"The subject matter in [these] poems hit close to home in many ways, for myself and Im sure will for many others. In a certain sense, I found [the] poems to be psychologically educational, which was an added surprise." -Dean Tenaglia About the Author: Although he did not pursue a degree in literature, Cosimo explored and expanded his poetry in his early twenties. Moving away for university allowed him to experience a whole other world compared to the one he grew up in. This led to many encounters with love, sadness, depression and anger. The only outlet that had an effect on his mental health was his poetry. Writing allowed him to feel and process his emotions through art. Putting pen to paper was the last thing on his mind as he grew up in the small town of Bolton, Ontario, Canada. Cosimo spent most of his time outside or participating in sports. Growing up in Canada allowed him to appreciate the value of community, where he recognized the impact one person can have on others within a small town. His love for poetry emerged from one of his high school teachers, Mr. Adriano, when he challenged Cosimo about what writing can be. Once graduating high school Cosimo completed his bachelors degree in archaeology at Sir Wilfrid Laurier University. He then spent seven years working in the world of archaeology alongside First Nations communities in Southern Ontario. Cosimo is currently an elementary school teacher hoping to share his love of history and poetry with his students. He is married and has recently become a father.(BK-9798986037776)
