Soft, Sweet Poetry
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Wanek used a lot of simple images. Smooth, rolling lines that flowed together connect very well. She took things that were beautiful and turned them into concrete pictures. She used ideas that you can relate to. I felt as if there was a one on one connection. She used a lot of common everyday images. These are poems that could be looked at 10 years from now and still be current. I felt there was no emotions in the poems. No sadness or pain. I liked it that way. Connie Wanek's poetry gives you a sense of depth. I found her words to be very confident. When she used words of abstraction, they usually left me with a clear solid image in my mind. She uses ideas that I have subconsciously thought, surfaces memories.
