Rating: 5/5

Fully Human is a lovely collection of poems penned by the author Mike A Loyd. This poetry book is divided into seven chapters.

The poem Forgiveness tells us to forgive each other every day. Even though it’s not easy, it’s important.

My Everything is about a guy who had everything money could buy but he didn’t have his family by his side. Family is everything. Until and unless we don’t have our family by our side, we are incomplete.

My favorite poem from the collection is Hopes and Dreams. We all stay so busy that we don’t have time to waste. Whenever we meet someone they start asking about our college or job package even though we don’t like such questions. I could very well relate to this poem.

People sitting and fidgeting
all day, and all along,
chittering and chattering,
“Did you hear that new song?”
Coming and going
from here and to there,
eating and drinking
amidst gasping for air.

Some of my other favorite poems from the collection are: Belonging, That’s Life, Learning to Trust, etc. Language used in this book is lucid. Even if you aren’t an avid poetry reader, you would be able to understand these poems. Cover photo of the book is lovely. Readers would be able to relate their situation to many poems.
