First it was “My Small Book of Poems“, and after testing the waters, and receiving recognition for his first book, this tender hearted trucker from down under has published another heartwarming book of poems, “Rhymes of Times”. I am enjoying the copy David sent me to review.

The thing I like most is that the author comes through the book…what I mean by that is I can picture him reading the words, words that make you imagine that you know just how the writer sounds. Does that makes sense? It’s just plain real, and down-to-earth, warm and friendly.

On the front cover you see him casually dressed sitting by beautiful water, on the back, standing in front of his truck, a big rig…pictures which reflect the contrast in the type of poetry he writes. David asked me if I might introduce you to a dear friend of his who also reviews books, and her site, and I think the easiest way to do that is to have you click right here, and visit her page about David Delaney. She’s native to Australia, so will have a lot more local information than I, a reviewer from the States, can provide, including events, local media coverage and more.

Back to the book, here are a few chapters from the table of contents:

• I Love Writing
• My Dad
• When Autumn Comes Again
• I Was There
• Loving Again
• Loving You
• Forest Gardens
• Greg & Virginia
• I Will Forget You Not
• Robby
• Play On
• My Mate
• It’s Good to Be and Aussie
• Nightmare of Love

Well that gives you an idea, there are more poems, 30 to be exact. You can click here to contact David by email, and click the earlier link, or the main home page, www.collectivewebsites.com .
