“And after my wanderings, I hope I will arrive where love is not alone, and hate is not alive.” “I shall try to follow reason & faith, and trust that where they join it is my place.” From the foreword: “Writing a poem is like sailing deep oceans at the mercy of shifting winds and streams that carry uncountable words, some emanating from the still, unseen deep, others from the ever changing emotions that flutter and sometimes rage at the surface. It may also happen that a poem wants to write itself, for poems can have feelings and secrets of their own that we never imagined, and are only revealed when one begins to write. The extraordinary discovery that it implies, is what makes the adventure of writing poetry the more exciting and worthwhile. Unique. … Within my limitations, I wrote this book with deep respect and admiration for the art of many great classical and modern poets, and sympathy for all those that have the courage to expose their feelings. The book reveals some feelings of mine and a few opinions. It is a book about emotions, love, joy and sorrow, beliefs, and thoughts on life. About the world we live in, the Universe from where we came, and to where we will return one day. It is a book about lions too, birds, rain, the sun and the sea. It is about living creatures and stones. And Gods, time, existence and the naive hope of an eternal restart. It starts at Dawn.” “Tomorrow, I’ll travel, I’ll dream of adventures and gavel the tempers, all seven, to check if there’s fire in heaven.”

Pierre Soter
Pierre Sóter is my pen name. Passion, for me, is a constant in life. Poetry, too, entered my world of passions. And today I read poetry daily, and write often. I’m willing to share it with the world. Life restarts at dawn and with it I started my writing. DAWN, “that part of the day that briefly follows night”, was published in the Summer of 2017 by Adelaide Books. And a second book has already been released with more EMOTIONS. And EMOÇÕES too, because I write in English and Portuguese, my mother tongue. DAWN and EMOTIONS/EMOÇÕES are the first books in a book series of Poems and Thoughts. And I’m already working on the books that follow, which will be released in 2018. My daily emotions will be, to a large extent, replaced by concerns about the world we live in, by REFLECTIONS and REFLEXÕES on its state and how it may become better, IT MAY BE BETTER.
