Young person is blessed with talent for creative future. Life is a blank sheet of paper, demanding best picture. Nature nourishes creatures, never lasts forever. Nature’s longevity is emulated with timeless file. Young talents seek joy and hope for sparkling future. Relaxation enhances healthy life: “ Read a poem; Sing a song, where excitement belongs; Joy comes along!” Every child wants to be successful in early life. Yet, very few, even precocious genius, can reach pinnacle at prime of life without a mentor or school education. Thomas Edison, iconic inventor and entrepreneur, was deaf but self assured, inquisitive, paying little attention in class. After twelve weeks of schooling, his mother, a trained teacher, took him home for private education. Edison developed avid reading, writing and mathematics proficiencies to become self–educated electrical engineer and telegrapher. Among 1,093 inventions, his first motion picture camera/film patent gave rise to movie industry. His light bulb invention kindled great hope for replacing flickering lantern with bright, incandescent light, albeit powered with expensive DC battery. Edison never admitted failure: “I have not failed, I just found 10,000 ways”. Nicola Tesla, Edison’s employee for short span, Serbian American engineer, invented AC electric supply system; His novel invention revolutionized efficient power transmission, and mass communications. All successful entrepreneurs, scientists, artists, musicians, educators, philosophers, investors, and politicians had developed their career paths at young ages. They seldom doubted their ability to succeed during school years or at training periods. They were keen in planning future with self-motivation, and hard work with unwavering perseverance. Young people are blessed with talents, dynamic energy, charismatic personality, and high hope for their achievements. 本書特色 ▍華人理工博士Francis S Cheng（程聖雄）第一本全英文詩集。 ▍理工科學家也能寫詩，帶領讀者用理性的筆，寫感性的詩文。

作者簡介

Francis S. Cheng

　　As a young boy, I imitated Edison’s creative spirit for dismantling musical boxes. Regrettably, I discovered nothing, but ruined coo-coo clock, phonograph, and Bell telephone. Those were not allowed to tinker. Getting grounded was most humiliating, remorseful; I had to shape up and became discipline in pursuing quintessential educations.

　　Francis holds PhD in Chemistry, and DSc in Chemical Engineering. He had postdoctoral training; worked for many industries including Exxon, Monsanto, and Vanderbilt Chemicals. He also taught graduate and undergraduate chemistry courses at University of Bridgeport, as adjunct associate professor, for years.

　　He took children story-writing courses, and attended Faxon Poetry sessions for hobbies, and learned how to write poetry of nature, health and science, and book on foods and drugs.
 

▍Harbinger of spring

Daffodil pageant welcomes spring –
Stately poised golden buglers, salute
majestic season.
Beaming sun embraces spring charm.

Golden daffodils verge on shore cliff,
overlooking, the surging tides.
Blast bugles with surreal tunes;
Sea breeze caresses golden hues.

Spring revives barren lands.
Helping farmers thaw the mounds,
Tilling sowing with fervent heart.
Longing seedlings burst new life.

Golden daffodil lights torch of spring – 
Injects fresh energy kindling life.
Nature unfurls welcome banner.
Spring ventures while great earth nurtures.

▍Four Seasons for Country Boy

Little boy braves cool spring,
venturing outside with running nose.
Chasing butterflies in prairie,
tumbling over with bloody nose.

Foggy dawning heralds muggy summer.
Golden retriever chases red foxes.
Little boy jumps on pony back,
suffering free fall with black eyes.

Golden foliage outshines azure skyline,
Taking hayride through pumpkin patch.
Golden eagle soaring high,
geese, heading south, wave goodbye.

Drab pumpkin vines litter on farm.
Snow brushes terrain into gleaming plains.
Milking cows rush into cold barn,
flute boy keeps shaking herd calm.
