Poems of celebration and endurance.Poems of celebration and endurance.From "I Am a Black Man"I am a Black manmy history written with bloodsome sweet songs of sorroware composed for my souland Ican be seen plowing in the fieldsCan be heardhummingin the nightIn these poems of celebration and endurance, Leonard A. Slade Jr. addresses the human need to be connected not only to the physical "now," but also to the other lives and other music we pass through during our lives. Slade's unique voice exposes the sweetness, the sorrow, and the humor of life's celebrations and struggles, but above all is the importance of love and the reliance on God and in faith for transcendence. These are poems to help us to endure, to grow, and to triumph.Acknowledgments Jazz after Dinner Jazz After Dinner For Our Mothers Drinking We Must Remember His Professor My Friend, My Survivor Overcharged Thanksgiving Celebration In Praise of Summer Sounds This My Father Queen for Patrons Freedom He Citizens in Heaven How Beautiful, O God And When I Die I Am a Black Man Be Grateful New Year Advice I Wish I Had Taken Earlier in Life Never Forget The Sad Adult Be Like the Flower Conversation Black Philosophy Reasons for Celebration Classic Shed Brown Portrait Reasons for Celebration The Great Mother As a Friend New York City Life and Death Golden Years Family-Glorious How Great You Are When I Heard from the Tax Man Lilacs in Spring Rapping My Way Home from an English Conference at Hunter College On March 22, 1997 What is a Father?
