Author and Poet John L. Leach IV leaves an indelible impression with an artistic literary expression throughout Poems of the Pen. As the artist speaks through his paintings, so the poet speaks through his writings. It does not matter what the poet writes with, but what the poet writes. Author John L. Leach IV seeks to creatively bring poetry to the realm of deeper meaning and better understanding as you collect your thoughts and thoughtfully consider words and their meanings with each stroke of the pen throughout Poems of the Pen. So many thoughts, ideas, and dreams flow from an academic stream as the author wrestles with life's mysteries and asks sobering questions through the use of poetry.
