Customer Reviews for My Poetry Chapbook, "How to Fly"
August 15, 2018
This
a WONDERFUL book of poetry that takes you on a complete journey from the very
beginning to the very end. Ms. Davidson begins her story with the simple and
brave act of purchasing a ticket that feels like " first class on a paper
airplane." And indeed it is. We step into her shoes and learn exactly HOW TO
FLY. A great use of words and visuals transport us through HER time, HER eyes,
and HER thoughts on navigating life in a big city. Isn't that what life is? To
survive and continually grow. She tells us you are the paper airplane and
throwing yourself into the air (not knowing where you will go) is okay because
we never truly know where we will land. Ultimately its not the destination but
the journey of learning of letting go so you can be "released,
unguarded...free."

Beautiful
collection of poems that are exquisitely written yet accessible. Many of the
poems have a visual accompaniment, adding another layer of beauty, complexity
and “fun” to the collection. If you have a brain and/or heart (preferably
both), you will be moved and inspired by these poems. Highly recommended.

“How
to Fly” was such a refreshing change from most poetry. The fluent description
and storytelling made such vivid images in my mind that I felt I was right
there participating or witnessing the lines. The sensory descriptions of the
author’s New York City experiences are outstanding.

This
book is more than just one poem after another. Using photographs and pictures,
she ties them to the themes of her poems. Through her poetry, Kerri gives
readers a glimpse into her life and encourages others to "fly" and
follow their dreams.

For
those who enjoy reading poems, Kerri Davidson's collection in "How To
Fly" will delight with honesty, vivid imagery, and beautiful language. Her
poems reflect, in all of us, the need to fly and find our own voice, our own
dreams, and with courage, persistence, and support from loved ones, the
likelihood of escaping captivity.

Kerri’s poetry uses
imagery that is vivid and on the mark. The reader gets a taste of some of the
sights, sounds and feeling of living in a big city. There’s a hint of
loneliness, but not a drop of pity. Kerri’s lines are spare and show a quiet
strength as she points to simple pleasures, like the sunshine glimpsed in a
rain puddle, that make life sweet.
