Thinking of a beach,
Anywhere I can relax
And soak my feet.
Maybe you already know
What I mean.
The water is warm.
We can watch the sun and then the moon, no demons to defeat.
The norm is freedom.
Richard Azael Martinez Jr. has seen his share of challenges throughout his lifetime. In his first compilation of poems, he shares insight into his journey through life as he works to conquer a variety of difficulties and emotions while facing seemingly insurmountable obstacles.
Within his diverse poems, Martinez reflects on relatable topics such as love, nature, fears, the thinking process, forgotten celebrities, the choices we make, jealousy, life’s consequences, and purgatory. Throughout his collection, Martinez reminds us that no matter what our struggles, we are never alone and that we must all learn to persevere in order to thrive.
Reflections of Life shares verse from a new voice in poetry as he lyrically explores his experiences, both good and bad, while inviting others to do the same.
Richard A. Martinez Jr. grew up in Staten Island, New York, served in the army, and worked in EMS after attending trade school. Martinez is also a self-taught musician. He now resides in Brooklyn, where he writes poetry and song lyrics.
