Download or read book A Collection Of Short Stories & Poems written by Gary E. Smith and published by gatekeeper press. This book was released on 2021-11-04 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book of short stories of everyday human emotional experiences. Stories of profound loss. Stories of great friendships. Stories of growing old with a dog, of going to war, and of course, stories of deep romantic love. I hope the stories encourage the reader to do some introspection on what it means to be human. I believe the poems, like all art, will mean more to some than to others.
