The poetry of L. H. Swiger covers many areas of life. Some are about the love of nature, some about the love of family (both of parents and children), some are patriotic, and some are about love itself. Many of them are doctrinal (or about God and the way of Salvation or Biblical Victorious Lives). Brother Swiger was greatly inspired as he wrote about the death of his little nephew in "The Angels Picked Jesus A Birthday Bouquet"; or "Victorious Victims" (following the Oklahoma City bombing); or as he wrote the one titled "Tell Your Daddy Too." Although not all were about personal events in his life, still he was often deeply motivated by a particular event that he was familiar with. This collection includes an essay about his first pastorate and the love of a place called Brushy Run, West Virginia. He has included in this volume a Christian family love poem (that tells a story) in "Just One." He also has listed about thirty maxims in this book. Brother L. H. Swiger has written approximately 580 Christian poems thus far (of these he has selected approximately seventy-seven for this book). He was born in the country, raised in the country, and has a deep lasting love of nature and family, which reflects in his poetry. He doesn't profess to be a great poet, but he is anxious to share with others what God has given him, in poetry. It is his sincere desire that you will be touched by and enjoy this edition of "Heartfelt Poetry." God Bless!
