Oak Park, Ill.

Author R. Jerome Gibbons has created a collection of his unique poetry in "One Moment Please" (published by Xlibris). This collection shows his own perceptions on poetry, literature, and life in its entirety.

The poems in "One Moment Please" were inspired by the author's own experiences in life and how it helped shape his perceptions on the world. The poems are all multifaceted and convey his own opinion on a myriad of topics. One such example is the author's opinions on poetry that states that "much of today's poetry is too subjective; it puts a box around the imagination of the reader."

The poems are wide-ranging and often quixotic, all unified by a distinct voice. They also reveal an acute ability to capture the moment and a stunning imagination. This collection of poems is meant to be enjoyed and thoroughly digested by readers of all ages.
