Just Released CAUGHT UP MIDNIGHT DESSERT (1678 hits)

Caught Up Midnight Dessert, a collection of poems that speaks to the lover in you.... It is the magic that comes to life at midnight.... It is passion that sizzles, it is untouchable molten lava, it is raw emotions that we hide....It is what Etta James sings about; it is what KoKo Taylor is crying about; it is what Marvin Gaye demands; it is what Pattie LaBelle speaks in french about; It is what Al Greene promises; it is what Jimmy Reed is talking about, and Barry White is talking about; it is what James Brown is begging for; it is what the Flamingos croon about and Percy Sledge explains.

If you can identify with any of those messages then you have been in love or Caught Up In Midnight Dessert.

Get your copy "Caught Up Midnight Dessert" at Amazon.com, barnesandnoble.com or your favorite bookstore.

Post 1863 America The Beautiful
"I have read [the book] and gone back several times to read it again many of the poems such as "Hole in The Soul" "Dreams Denied" "The Precious Pie" and "My Prayer" among others. So meaningful to me. I have posted on fb and Visual Bookshelf my comments about this book...Thomasena Martin-Johnson's poignant verses reaffirms truths time and pain blur about life, emotions, dreams birthed and dwindled to ashes for the Native Americans and African Americans. Personal memories for me as African American and a woman are mirrored vividly. Her poems tell of will steeped to persevere through adversity, and act as admonition that "Lest ye forget..." I carry this book with me to read as I reach for support and will to go the next little while. As some might say..."The book was right on time."

Caught Up Midnight Dessert
"This book is intended to spark conversation at the dinner table but ends as pillow talk between you and your better half. It celebrates love, not lust; passion, not pleasure seeking,; monogamy, not promiscuity. The life guiding principles of Caught Up Midnight Dessert are depicted through a course of poems that are intended to be reminders of why we fell in love and a guide for less seasoned readers about the foundation on which lasting love is built, but it never seems diadactic. Have a craving; don't know what you are hungry for? Start with dessert.
