Your gift of poetry can be presented in an exclusively designed, handmade card of your choice.
Please click on any of the images below to see a much larger version. (Please allow pop-ups if you have them blocked and please be patient, they may take a few moments to load).
(You can choose from either range with the Unique and Deluxe packages)
Once the drafts have been finalized, you choose your favorite verse for the front of the card. Your personal message is printed inside on gold or silver flecked paper. All cards are tissue lined and your poem is printed on matching handmade paper. The card itself is then wrapped in tissue and sealed. BACK TO TOP OF PAGE or BEGIN ORDER

With the prepaid Unique and Deluxe packages, you have the option of receiving the original drafts of your poem.
They can be sent via e-mail with the first draft and you have the option of receiving the originals with your finished package. They are a nice addition and may be kept for posterity reasons. They are also a great way to see the "cutting room floor" and view the lines that never made it past editing.
The drafts are also signed and detail where the poem was written, the weather, rough temperature and any other thoughts and influences that may have steered the outcome. I write every poem from scratch and although on the cheaper packages I may borrow a verse or two, every poem is unique. Guaranteed. BACK TO TOP OF PAGE or BEGIN ORDER

E-COPIES OF 2 BOOKS by ALLEN JESSON
I'm proud of these two books.
A Time To Soar is, in my humble opinion, my best work yet.
A collection of inspirational poems and stories, coupled with life management tips (includes time, stress, health, diet, enjoyment) and some inspirational quotes from famous leaders of yesteryear. If you're looking to inspire, or to be inspired, there is something in this book for you. More details are available here.
Footprints, the hard copy of which is available at Amazon, is a collection of some of my favorite poems and stories from the early years of this site. A wide range of topics are covered; from birth to death (including suicide and murder), and the more sociable weddings, anniversaries and birthdays. I can be fairly sure that a tear will be shed.

With the Deluxe Package you also receive a Certificate for a FREE Standard Poem Package (worth US$99.50) that can be used anytime within the next 12 months.
A great idea for another birthday, Christmas or anniversary gift.
The certificate itself is also transferable, so you can give the certificate as a gift to someone else and let them order their very own gift of poetry.
Why not give it to your partner and see what they want to say back to you? :o) BACK TO TOP OF PAGE or BEGIN ORDER

FROM THESE PRICES
Together,
we can create something that is very unique and indeed, very special. I would
like to share it with the world - on video! Assuming that you have easy access
to a digital video camera, if you make a recording of your poem I will pay you
$50 for that recording. It is simple as that. Why would I do such a thing? So,
there is my question. Will you share your gift with the world? BACK TO TOP OF PAGE or BEGIN ORDER

Q. How do I pay you ? What are the payment terms ? There are payment options on site operated by highly respected third parties. I ask for a deposit up front and only ask for the balance when you are happy with your final draft. If you don't like using credit cards then you can also pay by check or money order but that does slow down the process somewhat. You can also phone in your details if you'd prefer. (I'm sorry, but I do have to insist on the deposit "up front", as this is my only method of sorting the "wheat" from the "chaff").
Q. Why offer a prepayment discount? 12% does seem high I know. But I think I've done my sums correctly. The credit card companies hit me twice for the two transactions (deposit and balance), the administration costs are certainly cheaper and my overdraft charges are reduced. I also offer a no quibble money back guarantee.

Q. What do your clients think about you? Generally they are very pleased with my work. I currently achieve a 95% satisfaction rating. I operate a money back guarantee system so I do actually refund the deposit for about 1 in 20 - but as the saying goes: You can't please all of the people all of the time. It is also a no quibble guarantee - if people are not happy then they get their deposit back (and I resolve to try harder next time).
Q. How do I know that you will deliver what you promise? Will I get value for money? My track record speaks for itself and the many, many customer testimonials are my testament. I have been offering this service since 1998, which in Internet terms is a lifetime. Complaints are rare and those received are dealt with in a professional and adult manner.

Q. I've seen some cheaper offers. Why should I go with you?
