On The Table Read Magazine, “the best entertainment eBook magazine UK“, Just Because You Can’t See It, Doesn’t Mean It Isn’t There by Steve Ellis provides a powerful and intimate refuge through poetry, offering connection, reflection, and solace by exploring the emotions and fleeting moments of daily life.
In an age where the hustle of life often drowns out quiet introspection, Steve Ellis’s latest poetry collection emerges as a gentle yet powerful invitation to pause, reflect, and feel. Brimming with transformational verse that lingers long after the page is turned, this collection weaves together the threads of universal human experience—love, laughter, loss, missed opportunities, and cherished dreams—into a tapestry that speaks to both the heart and mind.
Ellis’s poems, with evocative titles like The British Way, Amicable Breakup Soothing, and Smelly Dog, capture the essence of everyday life with a rare blend of warmth, wit, and wisdom. Whether it’s the tender ache of a relationship’s end, the quiet humor found in a pet’s quirks, or the stoic resilience of cultural identity, these works resonate deeply, offering something for everyone—be it the lifelong poetry lover or someone just beginning to uncover its magic.
At its core, this collection is a celebration of the human condition, inspired by the fleeting moments that define us: the joys and sorrows, the fantasies and wishes, the heartbreak and hope. Ellis has an uncanny ability to transform the mundane into the profound, finding poetry in the overlooked corners of life. As the synopsis promises, readers will encounter “joy, love and humour, dreams… heartbreak, nature, life experience and a whole load of fun.” It’s a journey that invites you to laugh, cry, and be utterly mesmerized by the beauty of his words.
What makes this collection particularly timely is its place in a world where poetry is breaking free from the ivory towers of traditional literary circles. Today, as the pain people carry grows increasingly invisible—hidden behind screens or buried beneath the surface—Ellis’s work proves the enduring relevance of poetry as a medium of connection and catharsis. His verses don’t just sit on the page; they reach out, offering solace and understanding to readers navigating their own unseen struggles.
For those who dive into these pages, the experience is nothing short of absorbing. This is not a collection to rush through, but one to savor—each poem a small universe unto itself, reflecting the complexities of life with clarity and grace. Whether you’re drawn to the soothing balm of Amicable Breakup Soothing or the playful charm of Smelly Dog, you’ll find yourself returning to these lines, discovering new layers with every read.
With all the money in the world,
Pearls, in the deep blue sea,
Diamonds in that diamond mine,
Or that exotic destiny.
Yachts or cars or house,
Or all of the above
There’s one thing you can never
buy…
The things that we call love
Now love, we know, is
Priceless
Yet we give our love for free
Love, flows beautifully, from
the soul
For everyone to see
So waste no time with treasures
For money love don’t car.
If love’s not found through chemistry
Then simply, love not there.
With 45 years of happy marriage, a growing family of grandchildren and a career built in construction, Steve’s heart finds solace in nature and justice. He is a champion of the underdog, with a zero-tolerance policy for those who prey on the innocent.
Independently published Just Because You Can’t See It, Doesn’t Mean It Isn’t There is available to purchase in paperback (ISBN No: xxxxxxxx) priced £6.99 plus postage directly from the author at steveelispoetry@gmail.com
