And we grew there, together...

    5.0 out of 5 stars Nostalgic Beauty
    Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2023

    A slender collection, Mr. Beckman’s poems call to mind much encompassed by the Welsh term hiraeth, the mix of nostalgia colored with sadness for what’s been lost, for those people & places of memory no longer existing. And in his poems, subtle flashes of pain-tinted anger over the tragic loss of a past due to the destruction of eminent domain.
    Of the collection, These I Know No One Got, Hark Back, & And Then resonated especially strongly for me. Haunting. Lovely.

    Mr. Beckman recounts a past that was lost by eminent domain. Through is poems, we can feel the beauty of the valley, the hard work that went into making it a home, the joy of childhood, and the tragedy of loss. It is said that one can't go home again, and physically that is true, but Mr. Beckman takes us back to that time and place through his poetry.

    I really enjoyed this fast, concise poetry collection. A slim volume, there's still tons of emotion in this collection of nostalgic poems. The images are easy to envision and the emotions of a lost childhood are something everyone can relate to.

    Mr. Beckman’s poems “wrenched my heart” a few times. Wistful, nostalgic, quite thought-provoking about the downside of eminent domain and its impact on the people displaced

    I found Beckman's poems to be both charming and melodious. My favorites were "Side Trip" and "And Then."
