One of the most fascinating aspects of life, and one of the best ways to glimpse how the human mind truly works, is by studying language.
Language is a beautiful insight into the differences and similarities between our various cultures throughout history, for one of the things that happens often is a word in one language can have a completely different meaning than it does in another language, and thus changes the message and intent of a person’s sentence altogether. In writing, one of the best ways to understand these changes is through poetry.
In author and poet Ira Rubin’s Under the Rainbow, the writer shares a collection of poems which challenge how we view the world and the events which define our lives. From the impact of mother nature – to love’s warm embrace – and everything in between, the author hopes to show how each and every situation in life has multiple perspectives.
The author does an incredible job of infusing strong imagery into his writing to make a very connective and intimate outlook on the poems themselves. Each poem is so beautifully written, taking an engaging approach to each topic through beautiful imagery and artistic direction which allows the reader to get lost in each poem’s message. The way the author tackles multiple themes, from love and life itself to more nuanced messages regarding faith and nature, made the book flow at a quickened pace.
This is the perfect read for those who enjoy poetry, especially those who enjoy poems which touch upon love and romance, life lessons, and love poems overall. The pacing and tone are perfect, allowing the reader to truly appreciate the imagery and atmosphere each poem brings to life, while allowing the emotional connection that each reader forms to the messaging of the poems to thrive and grow.
Heartfelt, quick-paced, and emotionally-driven, author Ira Rubin’s Under the Rainbow is a must-read poetry collection. The beauty and heart that went into this collection, and the duality of the themes that each poem represents, make this book a wonderful and thoughtful collection which both inspires and stirs the creativity within us all. The artistry and the passion for which the author wrote these poems can be felt on every page, and will make the reader eager to read more of the author’s work.
