Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

I like to think of this book as a poetic journal of my soul's search for truth and beauty. It also offers insights into many of the questions that plague us in this often chaotic world of ours. In its pages you will find free verse as well as sonnets. The prose poems are also interesting and highly meditative in nature. All in all, it is a work that simply flowed from my heart and soul.

From the Author

Excerpt: The Leaf

A leaf fell from the sky
Into my empty hand

Then spiraled
Into my flesh and blood

Leaving its imprint
Inside the ridges of my palm

Now I ponder
The mystery of this leaf

I hear it tap
Against the walls of my mind

As it makes mischief
In the valley of my soul
