Poems

Poems by Thomas Hall Shastid is a compilation of poetry by Thomas Hall Shastid that covers diverse subjects. Written during a time of growing self-expression through verse, the book examines different facets of existence, from the peacefulness of the outdoors and matters of faith to thoughts on living and on passing away. The poems, created during a young age, use expressive language and a somber feeling as they ask readers to consider common ideas of affection, the end of mortal life, and the flow of moments. From the sadness found in one poem about a tree losing its fruit to the joyful sounds of a poem about the holiday season, the author's creative work connects with both the happiness and the heartache that come with being human.
