Whispers of Autumn. Love, and Reflection is a collection of poems written as inspired by nature, personal relationships, and reflective thought. It is hoped that when read, the readers will be taken to a time or place realative to a memory they have that is brought to them by the particular poem. Any measure of success on the writer's part will be measured not only in any joy on the reader's part at having any such memory reawakened, but also by the smiles it brings. The poems were written not only to express the writer's emotion about a subject, but also as a reminder to the reader of the incredible beauty that surrounds us every day.
This is a book of 93 poems that come from the heart of one who lived and loved life. The poems run the gamut of subject matter, from deadly serious to utterly whimsical and humorous, even nonsensical. The reader will experience poetically, what it meant to grow up in the 50's and 60's as seen through eyes, aspirations, hopes and dreams of a southern Indiana boy. Most of the poems are written in groups of 4-line verses and attempt to rhyme at the end of the lines. In other words, they share a close similarity to music lyrics. Sometimes, readers will experience sentence structure that reads like Old English but that is one of the hidden gems of the book. Either way, you can't help but experience love, joy and wonder in a unique way as it is penned by this author.
On The Wings Of Twilight is a collection of poems that mostly nature has inspired, as only it, in its infinite beauty, can do. Then there is the human side that is always available to draw thoughts that wind up on the paper. I can only hope that a line or phrase, perhaps a whole poem, can climb into the reader’s thoughts and place a calmness upon them or take them to a place they can relate to in their own lives.
Whispers of Love is a collection of poems written as inspired by a personal relationship, real or imagined, let the reader decide. Love is all there is at the top of a list of very important things. If that is not true, take it away from every part of your life and see what you have left. Whispers of Love was written from the eyes of the heart, which has perfect vision, if not perfect logic. Emotions derived from the love of another are the most beautiful, even if the heart is broken in the process. No other emotion triumphs in that way. Without love, the worth of living would be greatly diminished. The writer hopes that readers will be renewed in their love for their special one in some small way or reminded of that time when their heart was stolen away and they were glador both.
This book is not about theology. It's about life. Specifically, it's about facing life as it comes to ordinary people day by day, using the power of God to meet the challenges as they arise. As the author, i've had the experience of seeing God at work in lots of situations all over the world. These 43 stories are just a few examples of what I've seen him do.

The story behind the podcast Crimetown, as told by the notorious Buddy Cianci himself. An election is a war and "to the victor belongs the spoils." That’s the real democratic process. After all, you'll never see a victorious politician tell his supporters, "I want to thank all of you who worked so hard for my election. However, in the interest of good government, I've decided to give all the jobs to those people who voted against me." This belief became Buddy Cianci’s mantra. Following his own rules, Cianci spent almost three decades as mayor of Providence, RI... before leaving for an enforced vacation in a federally funded gated community. Providence was a dying industrial city when he first took office, but he helped turn it into one of the most desirable places to live in America. He did it by playing the game of hardball politics as well as it has ever been played, living up to his favorite Sinatra lyric "I did it my way"—because that's the only way a mayor can run a city. If you want to know the truth about how politics is played, you picked the right book. This is the behind-the-locked-door story of how politics in America really works. Here is a man who has been called many things: "America's Most Innovative Mayor," a "colorful character," and a convicted felon. But no one has ever called him shy. Here, he serves it all up.
