About the Book: ‘Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words’ ~ Robert Frost. It is not without a reason that humans call the best of everything ‘poetry’. In the famous romance novel, The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks, the hero calls his lover a ‘living poem’. Likewise, our best literature (irrespective of its form), movies, arts, places, food, and even wine is called ‘poetic’. No matter how scientifically advanced or technologically sophisticated we get, humans will always read and write poetry to express their emotions and feelings. We don’t read and write poetry because it’s fancy. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race filled with passion. Medicine, law, business, and engineering are noble pursuits necessary to sustain life. Poetry, beauty, romance and love make this life worth living. With immense pride and joy that the entire team at StoryMirror selected, edited, compiled, designed, printed and published this beautiful collection of poems, “Scent of Words”. The poets who co-authored this anthology come from different walks of life. Their age, gender, profession, qualification, theme and genre might differ, but all of them have brought their emotions, imagination, passion and life experiences to these poems. These poems are sure to strike a chord, touch your heart and soothe your soul. Hope you have a great reading experience!

Beauty is hard to describe, but easy to identify. It resides in expected and unexpected places in our world. Beauty is present in our world in a variety of forms. Yet while the average person might think about the reality of beauty from time to time, few people would think about the source of beauty. Where does beauty come from? Why is it here? Several hundred years ago Jonathan Edwards did some thinking of his own on this difficult subject. This volume explores his meditation on the subject and lays out a Christian framework for understanding and experiencing the beauty God has planted in His world. Edwards found in the study of beauty the person of God. Where Edwards saw beautiful images and acts, he saw a representation, a small picture, of a reality too great to comprehend, a God too majestic to adequately adore. He sets in motion a path of glory that begins with the Lord, moves to creation, continues to the incarnation of Christ, moves to the church, and ascends to the glory of heaven, where the Holy Trinity dwells. Easily accessible and readable, you do not need to be a scholar to enjoy these insights about Jonathan Edwards and his writings.
