5.0 out of 5 stars Poetry the way it should be written!!!!, August 29, 1999

By A Customer

I read this book when it was first released by Blue Mountain Press and was floored at Leonard Nimoy's profound grasp of language and poetic grace. I was tired of the lack of insight of the "modern poet" and the great loss of style. Poetry is not just words written on a page, where vulgarity is license- it is the essence of what we feel imparted through words, which if successful, the reader will feel, taste, and smell as the writer! Leonard Nimoy does this! He has grasped the essence of poetry, the true form of the "classics"

1.0 out of 5 stars Possibly the worst book of poetry ever..., May 18, 2005

By	Nathan O. Stearns - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I love this book. When I read it, I start giggling uncontrollably. This book is bad, but bad in a way that -- before I read it -- seemed impossible. The badness is transcendent in that as you read it you go through stages: disbelief, more disbelief, confusion, hilarity, and then finally a mystical place of joy in the fact that such a astoundingly bad book exists and can be purchased. I leave you with a quote to begin your journey:

Rocket ships
Are exciting
But so are roses
On a birthday

Computers are exciting
But so is a sunset

And logic
Will never replace
Love.

Sometimes I wonder
Where I belong
In the future
Or
In the past

I guess I'm just
An old-fashioned
Spaceman.





Wow, just Wow.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Insight Into Leonard Nimoy the Man, June 29, 1998

By A Customer

This book is part of my poetry collection. It is a collection of poems from several of Mr. Nimoy's books. It give us a insight into the complex and wonderfully sensitive man who made his biggest mark in Hollywood by playing a half human Mr. Spock who is not suppose to have any emotions. Mr. Nimoy give us a look into the real man, the man that his words exposes to our eyes is not wearing a mask, he is real, a warm generous man with a beauty of spirit rare in those who have gained great fame. His gifts to us are these words of love, wisdom, & courage. He is truely and outstanding actor, director, writer and photographer, but I think the man inside the poems is his greatest gift to us all. This book would make a wonderful addition to anyone's library.
