O knihe

From Germany to California, with stops in Paris, Turkey, and Greece,
these poems are a collection of the yearnings within us all -- questions asked,
answers given, and much that " never will."

Still: that love and loss are the greatest gifts, the deepest sorrows one can
ever know. And who can say what God is -- if finding Him, we are both
shattered and fulfilled?

May it never be that there is no final "after..." that there may always be
something wonderful, rising from "the deep" within.

When one loves too intensely, the
vulnerability is ever there for disaster.
We are so fragile, so weak; yet stronger
than imagined when tested. One hopes
that day will never come-yet come it
will. And always we are unprepared.
But life was not meant to be lived
on eggshells. Strength is most often
gained from failure.

These poems run the range of simple
observation to the shattered real of
personal confession... tracing the
evolution not only of history and
all it implies, but to the progress
and confrontations we must ever
acknowledge within ourselves and
regarding others. As an old adage
implies: win or lose, the game must be
played, and hopefully we may dance
well. Though life is far from a game.
Yet the prizes are many, and the losses
varied. As much as one can, we must
ever seek to value the ride.
