    About this ebook

    POEMS FOR ALL SEASONS by MaryAnn Diorio is a compilation of poems the author has written over a period of several years. The book includes poems in various forms, including sonnets, tetractyses, tercets, haikus, limericks, and an intriguing poetic form called the "Minute". A special feature of the book is the introduction of a new poetic form that MaryAnn created called the "Diorion"--a form inspired by her husband's family name. This new form alone is worth purchasing the book.

    Diorio's poetry reflects the different seasons of life and offers the reader a perspective that will entertain, inspire, and transform. POEMS FOR ALL SEASONS will delight readers of poetry everywhere.
