O knihe

My book Lifenotes: Book Three is a bit like a life-long diary. As I've journeyed through life, I always made it a point to stop and write down life's experiences. These I have compiled in this book. There are also some writings that never really fit into my other books, so I also put them here.
The poetry and many of the articles were written as a young man during some of the most difficult days of my life. Writing got me through grief, divorce, and depression, but ultimately brought me peace.
"Grounds for Greatness" was inspired by drinking coffee. It begins:
Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon 'em. -William Shakespeare
And then there are the once-removed, the unsung, word-of-mouth heroes. Pining away in the shadows of obscurity; their magic finally dazzles the right life, inspires a singer, rouses a writer, fascinates a financier. When that happens, history's elusive legends become the classic heroes of hand-me-down. Most consist of a few scattered details that age like fine wine; until one day, they are embellished in the crystal chalice of a connoisseur.
The poem "Awakening" was written after I was baptized with the Holy Ghost. It begins:The sun embracing hills of clayDoth kiss away the farspent dayBut ere it slips 'neath quilted nightIts glory doth your probe inviteFor wisdom whispered on the windAs you your daily web did spinAnd day hath not been void of soundFrom mountains all so noble gowned.¿¿Originally from California. Randall Glenn now resides in Jonesboro, Arkansas. This is the third book of six. He has been writing for fifty years.
