In “Off the Wall Verse,” Leo Lohman offers us a peek into the “Random Mind” of a lifelong poet. Leo grew up on a small farm in a small town in Northern New Mexico. The third of eleven children, he was born with a knack for rhyming and encouraged to express himself in poetry by a high school teacher. Leo began to chronical his life story in poetry at an early age. Random, or not, join Leo on his adventurous odyssey beginning with childhood stories of La Llorona, a cultural character guaranteed to keep young New Mexican children “in line” through his transition from teacher to principal. Perhaps he didn’t travel as far and wide as Magellan, the Blue Bear. But encouraged by Magellan, Leo captures for us his own personal travels and the romance of Spain, Italy, France, England and Hawaii. He also draws us into his wild rides bicycling the mountain passes of Colorado. Peppered with inspiration and a large dose of humor, Leo’s masterful verse paints vivid pictures that lead the reader into their own “Off the Wall” musings.
