About Leonard A. Slade, Jr.’s Poetry (1988 – 2008)”When beautiful poetry emerges from its secret abode, we can only hope we have been wise enough to leave our soul’s door ajar, and that it will enter and find a home there. I have read Leonard A. Slade, Jr.’s poetry, and I am the better for it, the wiser for it, and the happier for it.”-Dr. Maya AngelouReynolds Professor of American StudiesWake Forest University”A rhythmical and powerful voice we will long remember.”-Thelma KiserThe Independent”The beauty of Slade’s poetry is the adequacy of their feeling and the fine images he discovers for their expressions.
