Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I'm a poet that loves to rhyme and connect with the reader. With my poetry there is something for everyone and I talk about everything.

In life we have a ton of ups and downs, all different kinds. Some positive, lots negative, we cannot live in our past on our regrets. I refuse to be beaten or to give up and a lot of my poetry focuses on this concept. You are who you are and you should be proud of that.

Don't change for anyone, be you. You are great the way you are. Do not harm others and treat others the way that you wish to be treated.

Please if you do pick up one of my books think about leaving a review, I would love to know what you liked and even what you didn't.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's Hard To Write A Review For A Poetry Book.
Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2018

I mean, you're either interested in poetry, or you're not. I can say that one reason I particularly enjoy this collection of poems is because most of them rhyme! That may seem like a small detail, but as I've recently been checking out many of the new poets who make up the current renaissance that the poetry industry seems to be going through, most of them don't rhyme. Most seem barely written. I'm seeing people getting lauded for 2-line "poems" that read more like Facebook status updates to me. But Philip Lister clearly puts some effort into his work, and it shows.

I did like it but I didn’t love it!
Some of it spoke to me and some was rubbish for me.
I think it was the writing style and the way words didn’t fit for me.
I know it’s all about different tastes and this was so so for me.

We've got a lot in common this guy and I. He likes to rhyme, so do I. There were one or two poems of yours that felt a lot like one or two of mine. I enjoyed it, my guy.

Really though, it felt honest, authentic, real, direct, and all of those synonym's synonyms. I was looking for some good poetry to read when I was laying in bed this morning, and I found exactly that.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Contemplation of Loss, Love, (Lust) and Other Things That Matter.....
Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2019
Verified Purchase
"Rhyming poetry to change your day: Poetry that you can relate to" (2018) is the third book written by Philip Lister. A quick online search reveals very little about this poet, not to be confused with the British You Tube personality?
This is often a contemplative or observational collection most of which is centered around mental health themes involving depressive and addictive behavioral issues : "Addiction" - "I'm kicking this habit or am I?" - "Money controlling you!" - "Beat your addiction". These poems involve situations that really stood out.
Included were a few poems about "Current Affairs" that involved global politics.
"Depressive Works" was the title/theme that opened the book. Readers may relate to the heartbreak of losing a parent, Lister's father apparently suffered a massive stroke and never regained consciousness passing away at the hospital: "I never got to say goodbye" - Lister writes of dealing with depression with: "Tiresome Life" - "Suicidal Swill". Grief and mourning is cloaked a deep enveloping sadness with the next loss of his son, born prematurely: "His name is Jared" happened six years prior.
Lister's free verse poems of Love were centered around discovery, exploration, dreams and desire, the happiness of new love, and the need to write a poem for the new love. The love themed poetry continued into "Erotica" centering around desire, lust, pleasure and fantasy life. "A fulfilling massage" tells the story of a visit to a massage parlor.

Overall, this collection was fairly good, a Title Page and Table of Contests weren't included, and the free verse punctuation wasn't easy to follow. The large number of poems boost the appeal of the book. With thanks to the author for DDC for the purpose of review. 3.5* GOOD.

Rhyming poetry to change your day! is a delightful collection of heartfelt, sensual, nostalgic and beautiful expressions. Readers can easily relate to these poems as the collection touches on a range of topics: depression, love, life, romance and even current affairs.

I have always enjoyed poetry that rhymes... it is fun and refreshingly lighthearted as this collection was... truly 'rhyming poetry to change your day!'

3.0 out of 5 stars Words that rhyme are not enough.
Reviewed in Australia on August 5, 2018
Verified Purchase
This is a nice collection of 'poems' with varying subject matter. Some of it is insightful and touching. However, I believe rhyming poetry needs more than just sentences that happen to finish with words that rhyme. I believe rhyming poetry also needs rhythm. Experts on poetry might refer to it as cadence or meter, a pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables which make the lines flow, especially when read aloud. There are multiple, easily accessible examples available through a simple Google search.
The author is, of course, at liberty to write whatever he or she wants. As I said, I liked some of the contents but for me, it's not 'Rhyming Poetry'.
