Magic Realized and Other Poems on the Human Spirit

This book is about your capacity to love; to be amazed and astonished. It's about the unacknowledged grace that you possess. It concerns your native potential to create.



You are wiser, more compassionate and of greater use than, in many cases, you

have been taught to believe.

Your dreams mater.

Your personal pursuit of happiness matters.

You matter.



My intention in writing this book was to speak to the miracle that is you.



"Louis Alan Swartz writes beautiful and meaningful poems about life, death, immortality, spirituality

and living ... he often touched me deeply with his sentences. I had tears in my eyes while I was reading...

I read these poems all in one sitting, I was completely spellbound and loved every single one of them." --

Suze Lavender, Reviewer



..".when I find poetry that I like, it tends to stay with me. Such is the case with this book. It is filled with

moving poetry that you can relate to, and understand, and truly feel. Filled with beautiful imagery and

positive energy, these poems paint a picture in the mind's eye ... You will easily find comfort from the

poems on these pages." --Angela Gibbs, Reviewer



"The reason why I never fully grasped poetry is clear now after reading Louis Alan Swartz--I was reading

the wrong kind. This is my kind of poetry...because the poetry is written in a way that I can read it and

understand." --Phetra Novak, Reviewer



"This may be an anthology of poems--but it is also the manifestation of life--the beautiful journey of life--

from all perspectives and from all angles. It is a saga of that immortal soul." --Jayasre Roy, Reviewer from India
