Cohen(rochellecohen19@yahoo.com)REVIEWED BY: Arthur C. Ford, Sr. WOW! What a “gumbo” of poetry Poet Rochelle whips up! She dives into an ocean of words and swims through eons of time, temperaments, love lost, love pined for and returns; serving us a menu consisting of prose, blank verse, rhyme, and non-rhyme, seasoned with haiku and limericks. Some of the servings I enjoyed were, “The Concrete Jungle”, “Autumn Leaves Underfoot,” “Winter of My Soul,” “The Sound of Silence.” “Puffoonery,” and “ I Hear a Symphony.” Very digestible! This book is a “must read"Arthur C.
