Writings From the Attic George Albert Wilkinson Sr

A book of poems found by a son in the attic of his late father's home. A hidden treasure. Words that harken back to a simpler, gentler time. A decade after after George Wilkinson, Sr.'s passing, his son, George, Jr., was searching for something in his mother's attic when he came upon a looseleaf binder full of poems his father had written. Neither George nor his mother had any idea the poems existed. For hours, George forgot all about what he was looking for and sat there engrossed in his father's words. George Wilkinson, Sr. was a good father, husband, worker, and friend. He coached his son's little league team and was a Scout leader when George was in Boy Scouts. He was always there for family and friends. Reading his poetry brought George closer to him because of his depth, insight, and love, and it is through George's desire to share his father's outlook and wisdom with the world that "Writings From the Attic" was born. When George read the book, he thought, "I feel exactly the same way," or "how true." We've probably all had the same feelings or thoughts, but to see them on paper brings the feelings alive in ways that resonate for everyone.
