Summary
Kenmore, NY, February 14, 2025 --( PR.com )-- Joseph Riggie, a loving husband of fifty years as well as a father of four and grandfather of eight who worked as a surety underwriter and agent for forty-three years before retiring, has completed his new book, “Scraps and Testaments”: a stirring series of poems inspired by the author’s experiences, interests, and relationships throughout his life.“This is a collection of poems written over many years,” writes Riggie. “The poems are, for the most part, lyrical and concern a variety of topics, from courtship to the fall of empires. And you will notice that I like birds.“I hope that some of these poems may connect with your memories, but I would be most gratified if a student chose one of these poems to memorize and recite for a class project.”Published by Page Publishing, Joseph Riggie’s enthralling collection began over fifty years ago, when he first started writing poetry as a way to express his inner thoughts and desires.
