The book is filled with enchanting poems, each with a pencil sketch, that take us away from the obvious and mundane.
With each poem there is a short, written message intro that allows the author to speak personally to his reader. Whatever the problems, frustrations or emotions he is faced with, Sullivan manages to put an amusing slant on them all through his clever use of words and rhyme.
Although mainly light-hearted, there are some more sensitive and personal moments, which he has experienced as boy and man, that some readers will have faced themselves but all of us will recognise.
The author's perceptions of everyday experiences, which most of us take for granted, are seen through eyes that surprise and delight. One moment he is describing our varying seasons with words that are as visible in the imagination as the paint on an artist's canvas, next there are rib tickling moments about talking animals.
A POT OF MESSAGE is a Poem Casserole, a multi-ingredient dish that serves up enough nourishment to warm the cockles.
Reviews
A breath of fresh air.... Sullivan's book of poems exposes the emotions that most of us harbour but few can express in words about day-to-day life. The humorous poems, of which there are many, put a smile on my face. The author's intro and pencil sketches bring every poem to life. A bedside table must have! Sophie J.
