This isn’t poetry made to impress. It’s poetry made to connect.
Poetry In Motion is a quiet, often playful, and deeply human collection that finds meaning in the moments most people miss. Gordon Steklenburg writes like someone who has listened longer than he’s spoken, offering verses that come not from pretense, but from presence.
These are poems born in hospital corridors, family kitchens, faded dreams, and fleeting glances — where a child’s laughter or a stranger’s smile can shift the world a little. They don’t try to be profound. But somehow, they are.
This is the kind of poetry that doesn’t shout.
It sits beside you, lets out a breath, and says, “Yeah… me too.”
