Reader remarks:

Kissie Bank's poetry collection, Last Notes, offers something for everyone. It was a tapestry woven together from years of experience in many arenas. The book begins in public with " Crowded Streets but then moves increasingly inward. The second section includes the long, haunting "Peek and See," trying to find "beauty and life" in a strife-filled world. Section three focuses on relationships including "Lullaby for my Brown-Eye Girls." The following poems highlight elements of nature- blooms, stars. The last three sections center on love but in different dimension, first one-on-one love poems, then more intimate meditations, and finally a section that investigates belief and finding meaning, making meaning. Readers will find in these poems imagery and emotions easy to connect with.
