This hope is grounded in poetry and ancient wisdom, in love and family, and in the healing powers of the natural world: in time our land will be restored, and I will leave to my children a garden. For the generous gift that is these poems, and his encouragement to see our world anew, I join with the poet who asks only to live today... to sing/thank you! thank you!
-Alexander Levering Kern Poet and founding editor, Pensive: A Global Journal of Spirituality and the Arts (Northeastern University)
These are poems of a man questioning and questing in a complex world. Plain spoken and direct, they are also, at times, full of sudden joy and insight: I've seen the leaves fall, / the elm tree toppled./ I ask only to live today, / as full of juice as your peaches, / to shout and sing/ thank you! thank you!/ fearless and joyful.
-Nadia Colburn, author of The High Shelf
