    The Yearning Heart: Poems of Contemplation and Stillness

    About this ebook

    These poems reflect an ongoing awareness journey.

    The search began via personal psychotherapy and encounter groups in a secular perspective in the seventies, predictably morphing into spiritual concerns. An intense involvement as a Christian later transcended into a more all-embracing vision. The poems, few though they are, are a natural expression of that journey.
