Poems of a Spiritual Awakening offers an intimate look at one poets own spiritual awakening over a period of twenty-seven years, going into and out of recovery. Most critical to this awakening is the all-inclusive universal power of a loving God as He revealed Himself to the author through this inspiring poetry. After many years knowing that change was needed but having no success finding what others had discovered to enable their recoveries, the author began writing poetry to express those innermost feelings. Through these verses, God became an overwhelming presence, awakening the authors innermost emotions and the need to finally begin recovery from addiction. From the pain of acknowledging a troubled past in Boogie Man to the poignancy of Self Love, the author gradually found a way to express deeply buried emotions and fears. This poetry collection was written in less than fifty days, with God providing the path to release and recovery. The Voice I had a voice, I made much noise, I knew just what to do, I yelled in here, I talked out there, the voice within my mind, it drove me very blind. I thought out there, I thought out here, could hardly get some air, and then your voice, that still small sound, just threw me to the ground. It quieted my spirit true and showed me what to do.

The Great Awakening is a global movement by which a corrupt power structure is being systematically dismantled. This is C J Swan's third book on the subject. Originally the plan was to write three books but now a fourth is being worked on. The author is guided by the conviction that poetry is a unique art form that can play a special role in helping others to understand the significance of these world-shattering events taking place in our lifetime. The forward contains nineteen extracts from the ""breadcrumbs"" given by Q (also known as Q Anon) who has been an inspiration to the writing. For those new to the subject, this will serve as an introduction to something that is very misunderstood in the world today. The poems were mostly written between March and August of 2019. These poems are a call to take up "arms" in a peaceful revolution to save the world from tyranny. Swan shows that we do not have to be American to fight in this revolution - we just have to believe in the redeeming power of Truth.

The Great Awakening is a global movement by which a corrupt power structure is being systematically dismantled. C J Swan has already written a first book of poems of the Great Awakening, and this is the second in what is expected to be a trilogy. As heroes of the takedown of the Deep State, reference is made to JFK, JFK Jr, Donald Trump and Q Anon. When the first of these poems was written, the victory of the forces of Light was still doubtful. Now, though many people are still sleeping, a major revolution is well underway, and the Power of the People is emerging victorious. As the final poem says, "They tried to bury us, not knowing we were seeds."

"Beginning with Isaac Watts's Horae Lyricae (1706) and concluding with the burgeoning poetic print culture of the early nineteenth century Awakening Verse unfolds how evangelical ministers, itinerants, and lay people in colonial British North America capaciously engaged prevailing ideas about literary taste and created a distinct transatlantic poetics grounded in Watts's notion of the "plainest capacity." From the evangelical women who were instrumental in the development of bountiful verse ministries and the creation of poetic coteries to the itinerant ministers for whom poetics and its attendant sociability were central, evangelicals produced new forms of the "poet-minister" and "print itinerancy" that emerged as crucial practices of revivalism and facilitated rearrangements of ecclesiastical, gendered, and racialized authority. Well-known poet-ministers, such the Bostonian Sarah Moorhead and the Virginian James Ireland, reimagined formal poetic elements in the service of saving souls. Others, like Samuel Davies and Phillis Wheatley became enmeshed in critical debates over the racialization of evangelical verse. Countless others, in print and in manuscript, joined with Watts to save poetry from its "profligate" uses. Awakening Verse shows that American literary and religious histories that regularly exclude one hundred years of verse severely impoverish our understanding of early evangelicalism and American poetry. Taking revival poets and their verse as seriously as they and their contemporaries did provides an entirely new understanding of eighteenth-century evangelical and literary culture, one in which poetry serves as one of the primary actors in the creation, maintenance, and adaptation of evangelical culture and religious enthusiasm animates American poetics"--
