Book excerpt: Spanning 1993 to 2015, Selected Poems is a collection of poetry by Michael Nilsen, which he began writing as a way to vent his angst and frustration upon discovering he had contracted the debilitating illness M.E. The poems within this collection embrace a diverse range of themes, including nature, autobiographical, surrealism, diatribes and light-heartedness. EFFLORESCENCE The seed snuggles in the glebe, The sun smiles upon the soil, Showers bless the little plot, Awakens the seed, A bud stretches and yawns To greet the day, Grows into a fine flower, And pleases all who see. Written in a distinctive and accessible style, Selected Poems will encourage readers to see the familiar in new ways and will appeal to those who enjoy poetry.
