As his poetry reveals a glimpse into his personal journey and perspectives, he explores what it means to be Black in America, faith and hope, life itself, and love as he learned to navigate through and achieve victory over the pitfalls and obstacles in his way, accept and love others with an open heart, and find strength in God's unconditional love.\u003cbr\u003e In the Eyes of an Old Black Man is a volume of free verse that candidly reflects on the personal journey of a man of faith as he embraced the colorful experiences of life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ron Whitlock\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Archway Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/10\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 72\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.22lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.17d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781665739665\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Archway Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40812338544755,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":22.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_240e51d4-5338-4f6b-9dff-948372ed2ced.jpg?v=1683206417","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/in-the-eyes-of-an-old-black-man-9781665739665","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
