Poetry, Short Stories & Plays
From off beat love poems to poems about world events, Lines from an Ordinary Life will make you laugh, cry and think in equal measure. Taken from observations of ordinary life in all its extraordinariness, there is something for everyone.
These aren’t poems about exotic lives or daring deeds, but the mundane and relatable moments that are common to our messy, quirky, wonderful lives.
Here's what readers have to say about this book....
A Poetry Collection That Moves the Heart in Every Direction Sally Lang’s poetry arrived in my life at a time when I needed gentleness, honesty, and something real to hold on to. While I was in hospital recovering, her words became a quiet companion, guiding me through moments of reflection, lifting me in moments of joy, and sitting with me in the more difficult ones. Her poetry has a rare gift: it doesn’t just speak, it listens. Each piece feels like a conversation with the heart... tender, grounded, and unafraid to explore the full range of human feeling. One moment you find yourself smiling at the beauty of everyday life; the next, you’re quietly moved by a line that touches something deeper. Sally writes with clarity and soul. She doesn’t embellish emotion, she reveals it. These poems remind you that even the smallest moments carry meaning, and that love, loss, and hope are threads we all share. If you’re looking for a book that brings comfort and connection, one that allows you to feel fully and freely...then this collection is a gift. I’m grateful it found me when it did, and I have no doubt it will speak just as deeply to anyone who opens its pages. Duncan Selby
