The poetry contained in this anthology is the culmination of over forty-five years of the author’s intimate interactions with the raw and refined elements of nature and a layman’s passionate record of the natural, human, and spiritual aspects of life. He masterfully uses vivid imagery and pleasing rhythms to transport the reader to places he won’t want to leave and won’t soon forget. This is a brilliantly insightful, awe-inspiring, and at times provocative book with the power to make you laugh and cry or possibly change how you look at the world we live in, your place within it, and the spirit that binds it all together.
