Bookshop Prayers by Paul McLaney is a collection of 200 poems written for adults of all ages.
Everyday poems for everyday use. Friendly verse patiently waiting in a book to have their moments. Some are sillier than others and some are sillier still. Amongst them you will hopefully discover meditations, whimsy, well-meaning advice, doggerel, spells, wordplay and above all, a love of language engaged in a motivation to kindness; rhymes of cheer and good intent…
Paul McLaney was born in Billingham, County Durham in 1975. He has made peace with the illusion of growing up, largely by avoiding it. Paul enjoys long words on the beach and the occasional limerick. Some of his best friends are songs.
