Strange Dreams by Derek WelshStrange Dreams

Strange Dreams is a 157-page hardback volume of poetry that weaves dream images into vivid word pictures. Welsh crafts his poems with precision, striking the exact chord of meaning he wants while inducing the words to sing. He speaks of war and addiction, hope and love, greed and death, all the trappings of life which are embodied in the words of his opening poem, The Writer. "As a writer, The pen leads/ And life seems to follow." Indeed, his poetry captures life, in all its glory and damnation.

National reviews of the volume include the following quotations:

"A mesmerizing book of poetry. Definitely a must read."
- Carol Ulbrich - Entertainment News & Views

"Strange Dreams is impossible to put down until we have read, reread and digested every word."
- Dottie Coe - Award winning Miami poet

"Welsh is Clear enough to ensnare our attention and quirky enough to engage our imagination."
- Howard Cohen - Pop music writer for the Miami Herald

"Welsh's words carry both wisdom and truth and remain with us long after the last page is turned."
- Barbara Weston - Reviewer for The Bloomsbury Review
