Book excerpt: These books have been written for the reader's enjoyment by the poet and writer Edward David. The poetry books have been written in the traditional style in metrical form and rhyme. Edward David is an eighty-one year old man and has done many things in his lifetime.He grew up in the small historical Town of North Tarrytown on the Hudson River in New York State. At age six he wrote his first poem. At age seven his curiosity got the better of him.After school, he decided to see what was up to the road. He walked from North Tarrytown to Yonkers a distance of ten miles. After he had walked to Yonkers, he started to feel hungry and decided that it was time to turn around and go back. He took a wrong turn and lost his way and ended up in a housing development. Well, he thought he had better knock on some one's door and get directions to North Tarrytown. So he knocked on the door of the house closest to him. A young lady came to the door and he asked her which way was North Tarrytown. She promptly snatched him taking him inside and locking the front door then called the police. Soon two local policemen came. They questioned him and decided that he was the lost boy that earlier they had a missing report on. The two policemen put him in the back seat then drove to an ice cream parlor and bought him an ice cream cone. They drove to the town's border and radioed ahead to the police from the next town. When they arrived at the next town, they transferred him to their police car and drove him to the next town transferring him to that town's police car. That was the way it went until he arrived home.
