Douglas Anderson 
Poems to Make You Think 

ILLUMINATIVE/INTERPRETIVE/IMAGINATIVE THE WORLD IS CHANGING AT SUCH A RAPID PACE THAT IT IS BECOMING INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TO KEEP ABREAST OF ALL THAT IS OCCURING ON THIS CELESTIAL GLOBE. IT IS TIME TO DIFFERENCIATE BETWEEN THE IMPORTANT AND THE UNIMPORTANT. RELATIONSHIPS ARE OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE. THIS ACCUMULATION OF SHORT POEMS IS AN ATTEMPT TO EXPRESS WHAT MOST PEOPLE FEEL DEEP DOWN INSIDE BUT ARE OFTEN INCAPABLE OF LIVING OUT IN A PRACTICAL WAY. MEMORABLE OCCASIONS, SIGNIFICANT FAMILY EXPERIENCES, AND FUTURE EVENTS EACH SOMEHOW SUCCUMB TO IMMEDIATE PERSONAL CHALLENGES. INTENTIONALLY SET ASIDE A FEW MOMENTS TO REVEL IN THE BEST OF THE BEST AS DOUG ANDERSON UNRAVELS TRINKETS OF REFRESHINGLY SATISFYING GEMS. YOUR LIFE WILL BE ENRICHED AND YOUR IMAGINATION ENLIGHTENED.
EXCERPS FROM ‘POEMS TO MAKE YOU THINK’

Doug was born in a small rural Midwestern town and lived there until he married in 1956. He went on to gain his th.D. while fathering ten children, yet still found time to keep physically fit by completing more than one hundred ten full running marathons. His ability to stay focused and organized has enabled him to author fifty plus musical compositions and, at the same time, host a twenty three year running television program. Blessed with an innate passion to discover the voice of natural surroundings has enabled him to share, through poetry, insights into areas seldom seen with the naked eye, yet so evident to those seeking answers to the true meaning of life! Fifty two years of married life has provided helpful experiences that are so vividly woven through the expressive poems shared in this uniquely compact book.
