Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Poems of Inspiration
Rodrick Walters · 2006
52/100
👎 Skip It
Walters's collection is sincere and faith-grounded, and the second edition shows it found a real readership within its niche. But independent critical coverage is thin, the poems prioritize inspiration over literary craft, and readers looking for poetry with formal skill or lyrical depth will not find it here.
