Rhythmic Reflections on Life

Rhythmic Reflections on Life is a collection of story poems written over the past decade by author Mark J Spanbauer. Everyone seems to see the many aspects of life differently. In this book, Mark has attempted, through a rhythmic poetic style, to share how he perceives the complicated world we live in. Whether a poem is about something the he has experienced, seen others experience, or imagined, the purpose of this book is to have others think about life as they see it. Seeing the good that surrounds us and not dwelling too much on the negative is a healthy approach for many people. About the Author Mark J. Spanbauer was born in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. He was fortunate enough to grow up watching the Green Bay Packers football dynasty of the 1960s, coached by the legendary Vince Lombardi. Like many of the guys in Oshkosh at the time, sports occupied much of his time. In high school, Mark played football, wrestled, ran track, and was a member of football and track state championship teams. He went on to play football at UW-Oshkosh, and after college taught physical education for thirty years. Mark continues to work, but when he has free time, he enjoys shooting pool and fishing with his daughter, golfing, walking along the Fox River in Oshkosh, and goofing around in the woods.
