Book Reviews

“Ron Cervero is a gifted man!  But more than that, he’s a gift to Christians.  The book you hold in your hands is poetry… very good poetry.  But don’t let that fool you. These are poems that will make you think, move you deeply and sometimes make you angry.  But they will make you think and experience God in an incredibly profound way.  Read these poems and you will thank me for telling you to.”


" Man what a gifted poet you are! I love your poems...and the way you write "in your face" with power, beauty, and sensitivity. Some of them just explode in my mind. You know words and you know how to make them, stand up an salute."

In this new collection of poems, Ron Cervero writes about Darkness being so heavy it tears his mind and flesh into pieces. The author assures us that without light we are blind. Well...Mr. Cervero's soul and poetry not only have seen the light, but also buried all darkness and now risen to the highest level of spiritual writing with this set of Contemporary Christian Poetry.

 
Steve Brown tells us that Ron Cervero is a gift to all Christians. I say he's is a gift and inspiration to the world! Blood & Glory will lift your spirit to Heaven, it will take you closer to God.


WOW!
 
Don't ever accuse Ron of tickling ears. ( 2 Timothy 4 verse 3 )
 
In this world there is an abundance of the denial of Truth, because people don't want to know "God's Truth".
 
When I look in the mirror, I would prefer to see an incredibly handsome, well-built man. The truth is different and all my wishing won't change that.
 
When you read Ron's verses, you can try to trick yourself into thinking you can believe the lies of a lot of what is being preached today. And then Ron smacks you over the head. You wish he would have used a 2X4 but instead he speaks the TRUTH.
We love to listen to people who have smooth, gentle, affirming words more than someone like Ron who speaks the TRUTH.
 
When I read Big Brother on page 29 I say, "Ron, did you read my mind? Are you trying to make me take another look in the mirror?"
 
If you are like me and spent more than half your life looking for the "Real One" you will relate to Ron when he asks "How do I know that this One was the One?"
You will be blessed if you make BLOOD & GLORY a part of your life.

Blood & Glory by Ron N. Cervero

March 15, 2009

 

The author Ron Cervero has touched my heart and soul with his expressive and profound book of poetry, entitled Blood & Glory. This relatively short book of poems containing 51 pages is perfect as a personal companion when one might want to meditate within his work of perfection. Emotionally stimulating bringing one to study his, at times mysterious work, one is left with wanting more, wanting to read between the lines of the personal thoughts within this author's soul. Upon reading Mr. Cervero, I see the author being on the outside, learning to look in. His deep love of his God is moving, his faith unshakable, his love something to be connected with. In his poem 'Box of Hope' which I believe is the essence of this writer, is humbling giving insight to the mainframe of the poet. And finally, the poem 'Love', strikingly moving reveals to all that love is our answer to most that will ail us. Ron Cervero and his poetry book Blood & Glory is highly recommended to all, for his words are something to be savored and cherished.
