"Your Secret Door to Happy" is a book of 49 new, original poems written between 2022 and 2024. The poems range from love and comedy to social consciousness and pieces of the imagination. The wonder of poetry and imagination is that in a world filled with rules about pretty much everything, there are no rules to poetry and imagination. You can freely express your imagery, fantasy, creation, inspiration, and inventiveness. The only rule that Jon DeVries has in writing poetry is that he will not write a poem unless he feels it will help someone. He hopes this book lifts people out of the minute-to-minute annoyances that modern life can generate and makes them reflect on their humanity, love, and the creativity with which we are all endowed.
