In melodious and rhythmic stanzas these poems about relationships, writing, daily experiences, the environment and natural vulnerability capture the essence of the creative challenge when the poet transforms thoughts into words. - They reveal the intensity of living as the poet navigates through time, place and language. With a combination of humor and pathos they relay a sense of dedication to the creation of mood, message and experience that draws the reader to a deeper level of compassion and feeling. Often through the use of extended images and reminiscent of the nineteenth century romantic style, these poems exude a sense of maturity that captures the strength yet fragility of poetic expression.
